National, April 8, 2025: WeWork India Management Limited (“WeWork India”), one of India’s leading premium flexible workspace operators, today announced the opening of its latest workspace – WeWork Lightbridge. Located in Powai, one of Mumbai’s most sought-after commercial hubs, the newest addition hosts nearly 2000 desks, spanning across three floors.
As the city of Mumbai continues to grow as a major hub for multinational corporations and GCCs, there is a surge in demand for high-quality workspaces that are exceptional in design and services. While Bengaluru continues to lead in GCC setups with approximately 875+ GCCs in FY2024, it is closely followed by Mumbai with 365+ GCCs (Source: CBRE). WeWork Lightbridge reflects a design ethos inspired by Mumbai’s heritage. It features functional yet design-driven amenities, including conference rooms, wellness spaces, and an expansive lounge for managed operations on one floor, alongside co-working floors. The design movement is greatly inspired by machines and incorporates mechanical elements with sleek line work and bold accent colours. Additionally, there are light boxes with spatial illusion bringing in more light in spaces away from natural sunlight, along with hand painted tile installation inspired from Maharashtra’s hand painted tile craft paired with Lino paintings of seascapes.
Commenting on this expansion, Arnav S. Gusain, Chief of Supply, WeWork India, said, “The launch of WeWork Lightbridge marks a significant milestone for us. As the demand for flexible workspaces continues to rise, we remain committed to providing innovative, design-forward spaces that enable businesses and professionals to thrive. Lightbridge reflects our vision of combining functionality with cutting-edge design, ensuring businesses of all sizes have the resources they need to thrive in today’s dynamic work environment. It exemplifies modern design and sustainable practices, while showcasing the neoclassical movement in Mumbai. Furthermore, our collaboration with one of the leading developers – Hiranandani Group has allowed us to integrate the best of their expertise into the latest addition to our portfolio.”
