Mindspace currently operates 16 shared office locations in Israel and in European cities like London, Warsaw, and Berlin.

"When we got started four years ago, our clientele was mainly startups and small companies,” Mindspace Chief Executive Dan Zakai said in an interview. "Now, there is a shift toward large enterprises that rent spaces with us, having realized the advantages of flexible, short-term leasing."

Mr. Zakai added that the new locations will incorporate work by local artists.

Mindspace recently acquired two large customers in Booking.com, which announced that it would conduct research and development out of a Mindspace location in Tel Aviv, and Microsoft, which has leased office space in Herzliya, a suburb of Tel Aviv.
