Common Ground, a Malaysia-based coworking space operator, said on Wednesday it is courting startup firms at its new 'digital park' location in Taguig City. The company said the launch comes amid rising demand for flexible workspaces in the Philippines, according to BusinessWorld.

The new site gives startups an alternative to Bonifacio Global City, which Common Ground said has become too expensive for many young companies. By positioning the space as a 'digital park,' the operator hopes to attract tech firms and entrepreneurs looking for more affordable yet well-connected locations.

The expansion reflects broader growth in the Philippine flexible office market, with operators expanding beyond traditional business districts to capture demand from smaller enterprises. Common Ground's move also underscores the continued appeal of Taguig as a hub for emerging businesses despite rising rental costs in prime areas.
