Convene, a workplace solutions provider, is branching out from its traditional model to meet the growing demand of office owners looking for flexible workspaces while maintaining their company brands.

Convene CEO and co-founder Ryan Simonetti told Bisnow that the company is launching a new turnkey solution Monday for Class-A office landlords and building owners that allows Convene to help them design, build and/or manage flexible work and amenity spaces.

Simonetti said the benefit of that is “you have more control over the space, the design, the branding. You can control how much space we take or don’t take and we’ll do that in partnership with you and you get to control the bulk of the economics in that deal.” 

Simonetti said this product can be rapidly deployed and scaled through a landlord’s portfolio. The new service allows Convene more business opportunities with other Class-A landlords and owners than its traditional approach.

Convene’s announcement comes as the company continues to grow its workplace solutions empire at a rapid pace. 

Last month, the company raised a $152M Series D round led by Arrowmark. RXR Realty, Revolution Growth and The Durst Organization were among several investors that are investing in the company.
