infinitSpace Targets 30 U.S. Locations After Los Angeles Launch

Amsterdam-based infinitSpace is opening its first U.S. workspace in Downtown Los Angeles and plans to launch 30 locations across America within 24 months.

Amsterdam-based flexible-workspace company infinitSpace is making its first move into the United States — and Los Angeles is only the beginning.

The Dutch company is preparing to open a 32,000-square-foot flexible workspace at 612 S. Broadway in Downtown Los Angeles on November 2. The location will accommodate approximately 400 members and include private offices, shared workspace, meeting rooms, lounges and a rooftop event space.

The bigger target: 30 U.S. locations

The Los Angeles opening is the first step in a significantly larger American expansion. infinitSpace says it is targeting 30 new U.S. locations over the next 24 months.

Los Angeles, San Francisco, Austin, Seattle and New York are among the first markets on the company's U.S. roadmap. The rollout would materially increase infinitSpace's footprint: the company currently operates 15 locations globally, including sites in Amsterdam, London and Berlin.

For a European workspace operator entering one of the world's largest commercial real-estate markets, that makes this more than a single-location launch. infinitSpace is effectively attempting to build a national U.S. network in roughly two years.

A different way to enter the U.S. office market

infinitSpace's expansion model is also notable. Instead of signing conventional long-term leases for its locations, the company operates flexible workspaces through management agreements with building owners.

The agreement for its Downtown Los Angeles location runs for 15 years. Under this type of model, building owners provide the real estate while infinitSpace operates and manages the flexible-workspace product.

That approach can reduce the capital and lease exposure involved in opening a large number of locations, potentially allowing the company to expand more quickly than a traditional lease-driven operator.

Why start in Downtown Los Angeles?

The choice of Downtown Los Angeles is particularly interesting because the company is entering a market still dealing with substantial traditional office vacancy.

Downtown Los Angeles office vacancy exceeded 35% in the second quarter of 2026, according to data cited by Bisnow, compared with just over 25% across Los Angeles overall.

For infinitSpace CEO and co-founder Wybo Wijnbergen, however, weakness in traditional office markets can create an opening for flexible-workspace providers.

“If we really start listening to the market, every single company is looking for shorter-term space that's ready for usage.”

Wijnbergen previously served as a managing director at WeWork, giving infinitSpace leadership direct experience operating inside the global flexible-office industry.

Vacancy becomes part of the expansion opportunity

The U.S. office downturn creates a somewhat counterintuitive market-entry opportunity. High vacancy puts pressure on landlords to find new ways to activate underused buildings, while companies remain hesitant to commit to traditional five- or ten-year leases.

Flexible operators can sit between those two pressures: giving landlords another operating model for their properties while offering companies shorter commitments and ready-to-use offices.

infinitSpace's first Los Angeles building illustrates that dynamic. The former Desmond's department store location previously housed another coworking operator, meaning much of the infrastructure required for flexible workspace was already in place.

Why it matters for European companies scaling in America

infinitSpace is entering the U.S. with a model designed around partnerships rather than simply accumulating leased real estate. That matters because European companies often face a trade-off in America between moving quickly and taking on significant fixed costs.

If infinitSpace can secure management agreements with U.S. landlords across multiple cities, it could build its American footprint while keeping more of the underlying real-estate exposure with property owners.

The scale of the stated ambition is what makes the expansion worth watching. Going from no U.S. locations to a targeted 30 within 24 months would turn the United States from a new market into one of the most important parts of infinitSpace's global network.
