Workland Group, the largest fully serviced office and coworking operator in the Baltic States, has announced a change in its leadership team. Laura Panovienė, who has led Workland’s operations in Lithuania since 2016, has been appointed Group Executive Manager, succeeding Igor Beloborodov, who has led the company’s group-level operations and growth for 10 years.
“The past 10 years have been marked by active expansion in the Baltic region. At the moment, we are shifting focus from growth to process optimization and standardization in preparation for the next stages of development. Lithuania shows strong financial and operational results within the group context, so this operational leadership change is a natural step in strengthening the group’s position in the market,” – comments Indrek Hääl, founder and CEO of “Workland”.
The first fully serviced business centres managed by the group opened in 2016 in Riga, Vilnius, and Tallinn. The company began more active expansion in 2018 by opening the “Workland Didžioji” center at Vilnius Old Town and “Workland Vabaduse”, located next to the Freedom Square in Tallinn. In the following stages of expansion, the operator not only opened coworking spaces it had developed itself but also acquired centres managed by competitors – “Happspace” in Kaunas, Lithuania, “Uma Workspace” in Vilnius and Tallinn, and “Workery+” locations in Helsinki and Espoo cities in Finland. Currently, “Workland” operates 16 fully serviced business centres – five in Vilnius, one in Kaunas, three in Riga, five in Tallinn, one in Helsinki, and one in the city of Espoo, Finland.
“Workland’s” mission – to provide inspiring workspaces under flexible conditions, complemented by professional services and a supportive community that encourages business growth. The largest shareholder of “Workland” is the investment company “BaltCap”, together with the company’s founder Indrek Hääl.
