Smart workspace technologies introducedat ceremony[1]officiated by Minister Chan Chun Sing will transform how and where people work via"space as a service" concepts

SINGAPORE- Media OutReach - 16December 2020 - JustCo, Asia-Pacific's leading co-working company, today launched itsDigital Future of Work Platform at an event officiated by Singapore's Minister forTrade and Industry Mr. Chan Chun Sing. JustCo's new platform uses digitaltechnology to enable users to decide where and how to work, depending on eachindividual's unique needs. Diverse workspace options such as hub-and-spokeoffices, flexible workspaces and remote work booths can now be combined with thehome office and other workspace solutions to enable solo work or teamcollaboration to happen seamlessly.

The two keyinnovations powering JustCo's digital platform are:

Switch -- Theworld's first workspace on-demand app. Switch connects users andproviders of workspace flexibly and dynamically. Users pay by the minute forthe space that they use, with introductory pricing starting at just S$3.60 perhour. Switch customers can choose between accessing JustCo centres, non-JustCo sharedoffice locations, or proprietary Switch booths, based on their needs. 60 Switchbooths have already been deployed at JustCo's centres and at nine[2] Frasers Property malls,with both CBD and fringe locations covered. Customer adoption rates have been overwhelming,particularly in suburban locations where users want an alternative to workingfrom home. Plans are underway to introduce more Switch booths in Singapore andacross the region in cities that JustCo has presence in.

SixSense -- An AI-powered tool that connects withsensors to analyze how space is being used. The use cases for SixSense include workspacedesign, space-use optimisation analysis and, importantly, crowdedness monitoringfor safe distancing purposes. SixSense has been put into service at 10 Justco centres across Singapore with thefollowing immediate benefits:

• JustCocentres' users now have real-time information on centre density and crowdednessat their offices. By combining this information with JustCo's flexible officeoptions (including Switch), users can avoid crowded locations and pick workspaces that best suit their needs.
• JustCo operationsteams are now assisted by SixSense in their monitoring of safe-distancing complianceand other centre operations matters.
• JustCo'sdesign team can now use information collected through SixSense to continuously improveoffice design and construction.

Taken together, Switch and SixSense, plus other digitaltools to be added to JustCo's digital platform, will transform how companiesand workers access office space. By giving users the ultimate flexibility tochoose where and how to work, office space can now be consumed as an on-demandservice.

Kong Wan Sing,Founder and CEO of JustCo, added: "When the pandemic struck, many of us wereforced into the unknown and untried world of working from home. It worked wellfor some, but terribly for others. We quickly realized that what workers neededwas the power and digital tools to decide where and how to work. JustCo's DigitalFuture of Work Platform is our answer to that problem. Fixed and rigid offices haverun their course. The future belongs to flexible and on-demand workspaces."

The launch eventwas held at JustCo's newest co-working location at Singapore's The Centrepointshopping mall. JustCo Centrepoint houses the company's global headquarters andis also the firm's first "Smart Centre." Technology features in this centreinclude:

• Facialrecognition at all main entrances, with an advanced "mask setting" that permitsentry  only for masked users
• Mobile appenabled card-free access to all private suites and meeting rooms
• A fully-automatedrobotic café and bar operated by JustCo F&B partner RATIO. When paired withthe RATIO app, users can order beverages remotely and have them ready upon arrivalat the office

Thesetechnological innovations are being pioneered in Singapore before beingintroduced to other markets across the region.
