CORPORATEDGE’S TALE OF INCEPTION

With a background in hospitality, Monaah was able to identify the gaps prevalent in the workspace industry. With the goal of establishing a women-driven organisation that offers the most excellent service possible, she set out to bridge the gap by integrating high end infrastructure with best- in-class services; and thus came about the vision of CorporatEdge – “Premium serviced office provider of India”
Talking about CorporatEdge’s tale of inception, the leading lady shared, “We realised that organisations required more than simply office space; they needed the edge of excellent service. Recognising the need for grade-A infrastructure, operational support, and value-engineered product offerings that evolve along with the ever-dynamic global industries, led to the creation of CorporatEdge.”

CORPORATEDGE’S ENDEAVOUR TO DEAL WITH COVID CHALLENGES AND OPPORTUNITIES
Hybrid working (Combination of work from home and work from the office) has emerged as a long-term solution for the future of working in the new normal, post-lockdown – Covid19. Many people think it is a good idea for WFH; however, WFH has been known to have its downsides. Precisely, for this reason, CorporatEdge has established a workplace that provides flexibility on days when Hybrid working is the identified solution. The ability to operate in a hybrid setting helps increase productivity and cut down on office expenses. With a mandatory 6 feet distance rule over the last few years and the current situation, facility heads are thinking of ways to de-densify their HQ. To minimise long commutes and have a large number of people working under one roof, CorporatEdge offers the benefit of having a secondary safe hub apart from the main office. CorporatEdge through its decade-long journey has maintained a prudent financial position. Because it controls its debt-to-equity ratios, the company could ride the Covid storm successfully.
