Clockwise & Historic Building Conversion with Alexandra Livesey [Hospitality in Flex Space]

View descriptionShare

This time I'm talking to Alexandra Livesey from Clockwise, a company specialising in transforming historical buildings into flexible workspaces. Alexandra discusses Clockwise's rapid growth from 3 to 16 buildings (and counting) across four countries in just a few years. She emphasises the importance of understanding and respecting the local community and heritage of each building, and shares insights on incorporating hospitality experience into the real estate sector, the importance of transparency in business, and the utilisation of the metaverse for virtual meetings. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Clockwise focuses on creating flexible workspaces that honour the history and community of each building they operate in.
  • Clockwise's approach to building out spaces involves incorporating the local community's heritage and values, allowing for individuality and creativity among its members.
  • Clockwise leverages transparency, scenario planning, and a strong team to drive success in the flexible workspace industry.
  • The use of the Metaverse by Clockwise showcases innovation in connecting geographically dispersed members and enhancing emotional connections in virtual meetings.
  • Alexandra emphasises the importance of aligning personal brand values with business ventures to ensure long-term success and growth.

BEST MOMENTS

"I think every building has a purpose... So what works in Exeter doesn't work in Glasgow or in Antwerp or Brussels." 

"I think it will become more and more ingrained in what we do... this new generation is growing up intuitively using not only the real world, but also this virtual world." 

"You always need to know what's the worst case and how you're going to deal with it." 

"The thing about the metaverse is you actually have the ability to connect better because you're not only seeing the face... The exchange of and display of emotion in that environment seemed greater."
