KUALA LUMPUR, 5 February 2026 – WORQ, Malaysia’s leading coworking and flexible workspace provider, today announced the launch of WORQ Well, its inaugural people-first coworking sub-brand at Aspire Tower, KL Eco City.

“We’re incredibly excited to open our first WORQ Well, bringing together an exceptional workplace experience with a truly people-first environment. This is our most ambitious project yet, designed to help businesses attract and retain top talent, and drive stronger organisational performance,” said Stephanie Ping, Co-Founder and CEO of WORQ.
WORQ’s transit-oriented network enables flexible working arrangements
WORQ Well strengthens WORQ’s network of transit-oriented coworking spaces, which are designed to empower members to fit work into their lifestyle. Located within KL Eco City’s integrated urban ecosystem, WORQ Well offers direct access to LRT and KTM stations, making it a practical hub for hybrid and flexible work.
As WORQ expands its transit-oriented network, the share of WORQ members commuting by public transport has grown from 20 per cent in 2017 to 50 per cent today. In addition to making flex-work arrangements more accessible for companies, this shift contributes to the nation’s ESG agenda by reducing commute stress, supporting employee productivity and lowering reliance on cars.
“TalentCorp welcomes the launch of WORQ Well as a meaningful initiative that supports Malaysia’s workforce priorities, particularly in promoting flexible and wellbeing-centred work environments. As the Ministry of Human Resources’ strategic think tank agency, TalentCorp recognises flexible work arrangements as a key lever for talent attraction, retention and productivity. Initiatives like WORQ Well show how innovative, transit-oriented and wellness-driven workspaces can complement employer efforts, strengthen workforce resilience and enhance Malaysia’s overall talent competitiveness,” shared Edward Ling, Group CEO of TalentCorp.
WORQ’s network of coworking spaces is strategically located at transit-oriented developments (TODs) across the Klang Valley for seamless connectivity.
The launch of WORQ Well was officiated by YB Steven Sim Chee Keong, Minister of Entrepreneur and Cooperatives Development, underscoring the growing importance of quality, wellness-driven workplaces in supporting Malaysia’s economic growth and talent development.
“As Malaysia continues to strengthen its entrepreneurial ecosystem, workplaces that prioritise wellbeing, flexibility and innovation are essential for sustainable growth. Initiatives like WORQ Well set new standards for work environments and reflect the future of work — one that is people-first, balanced and inclusive. Flexible and transit-oriented workspaces not only empower more Malaysians to participate in the workforce, but also help attract higher-value, knowledge-intensive businesses, contributing to better-quality jobs and stronger talent development,” said YB Steven Sim Chee Keong.

WORQ Well is Malaysia’s first coworking space to achieve the WELL Coworking Rating, certified by the International WELL Building Institute (IWBI) in partnership with The Instant Group. Designed with evidence-based principles, it supports physical comfort, mental focus and overall wellbeing.
The space combines thoughtful design and wellness features with learning and development programmes delivered through partnerships with HRD Corp–certified trainers. These offerings ensure that members can work, rest, learn and connect in a flexible, people-first environment.
“WORQ becoming the first company in Malaysia to achieve the WELL Coworking Rating demonstrates true leadership in the flexible workspace sector,” said Jack Noonan, Senior Vice President and Head of Asia Pacific at International WELL Building Institute (IWBI). “As coworking continues to grow, there is an increasing need for workplaces that support health, resilience and everyday wellbeing. WORQ’s achievement shows how people-first design can raise expectations for flexible work environments and better serve Malaysia’s evolving workforce.”
WORQ members can access WORQ Well’s premium amenities through an All Access add-on, giving teams the flexibility to meet, collaborate, or host external guests at locations most convenient for their work and schedules. This reflects WORQ’s commitment to supporting a range of workplace and lifestyle needs.
