NEXT PHASE OF RESEARCH
 What is the total number of co-working spaces in U.S.?
 Is co-working a result of the new just-in-time model of large
corporation, a lifestyle, or a function of bad economy?
 Does co-working environment have substantial impact on startup’s team
formation, productivity, or future success?
