Growth of Gig Economy Boon for Small Office Rentals in Fort Worth, TX

    FORT WORTH, TX, August 02, 2018 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Although many people associate the gig economy with services like Uber and Airbnb, in fact, according to a recent Harvard Business Review article, the largest and fastest growing segments of the gig economy are in "knowledge-intensive industries and creative occupations" (HBR, "Thriving in the Gig Economy," March-April 2018). The gig economy includes an estimated 140 million workers in North America and Europe and is expected to continue to grow. The Texas Governor's office is currently gathering estimates on the size of the gig economy in the Lone Star state.

The HBR article identifies four kinds of connections that successful members of the gig economy cultivate: to place, to routines, to purpose, and to people. The article notes the kinds of spaces that freelancers like to work. The spaces tend to "feel confined" like cockpits but to be sufficient to give the freelancer "easy access to the tools of the owner's trade and to little else."

"The most productive freelancers have strong connection to a place where they do their work and where they can shut out distractions," said Real Estate Developer and Entrepreneur Ron Sturgeon. "We've seen strong demand for office space for lease for micro enterprises, independent contractors, freelancers and others in the gig economy and developed Paddock Place partly to meet the need for small office space to rent in North Fort Worth," said Sturgeon.
