May 27, 2017

With its GDP growing by over 10% per annum, Gibraltar becomes Rock solid for business

Companies and visitors will soon be able to benefit from flexible workspaces in World Trade Center Gibraltar as Regus enters the market

Gibraltar, May 25th - With over 11 million visitors a year, Gibraltar has long been known as a thriving tourist destination. But what is less well known is the phenomenal success Gibraltar has had as a burgeoning corporate commercial centre, particularly in the areas of e-Gaming and financial services. Gibraltar is known for its robust regulatory environment and positive tax regime, but it is the entrepreneurial nature of Gibraltarians and their flexibility and desire to make things happen quickly which have contributed to the region’s economic success. Impressively, it ranks third on the International Monetary Fund World Economic Outlook Database of GDP per capita rankings, ahead of Singapore, Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates. In view of this success and to capitalise on future growth, Regus, the global workspaces leader, has partnered with World Trade Center to bring the benefits of flexible working space - the phenomenon that is reshaping the way the world works - to the region and help local and international companies be more successful. Gibraltar has invested in the infrastructure required to build the growth it has experienced and the latest manifestation of that is the new World Trade Center Gibraltar, a state-of-the-art office building close to the international airport, which has opened for business in November 2016. Philippe Jimènez, Regional Director Southern Europe and West Africa of Regus, said: “We have wanted to open a facility in Gibraltar for some time. We are delighted that World Trade Center now gives us the opportunity to add Gibraltar to our expanding network and to offer businesses and travellers there the opportunities and benefits that flexible working offers. Modern, dynamic businesses need flexibility, agility and the ability to work where they want and when they want.” 1 Source HM Government of Gibraltar Statistics Office Tourist Survey Report 2014: https://www.gibraltar.gov.gi/new/sites/default/files/HMGoG_Documents/Tourist_Survey_Report_2014.pdf Regus is the world’s largest provider of flexible workspace solutions, with a network of 3,000 locations in over 1,000 towns and cities, across more than 100 countries, serving 2.3m members.
