About me

I'm Holly, the Marketing & Partner Relations Executive at NearU. But what is NearU? NearU, or the AirBNB for workspaces as we like to think of it, has launched an app that connects employees to flexible desk space and meeting rooms, putting flexible working at your fingertips. Traditional office working is a thing of the past and working-from-home has a high impact on our mental health - NearU's pay-as-you-go booking platform lets you choose to work-near-home when you want, eliminating the need for a commute, freeing you from expensive office rental contracts, and giving you the freedom to do what works for you.
