Is 2024 nearly over ALREADY? We can’t believe it – it’s gone by in a flash!
Since we threw open the doors of our first location, beyond Aldgate Tower, in March of 2022, beyond has gone from strength to strength – and, you guessed it, that didn’t change in 2024.
From welcoming fab new members and locations to our network to hosting incredible events and growing the beyond team, there’s SO much to celebrate from over the past year.
Here’s a little more on what we got up to…
Hosting a plethora of memorable events
Who doesn’t love a party? Events are a vital part of how we support and foster our community at beyond. From dazzling bonanzas to informative workshops, events have been the special sauce bringing our members together for fun, bonding and learning throughout the year.
In fact, we celebrated over an impressive 600 events across our five open locations!
Some highlights of our bustling events programme in 2024 included:
- Kicking off the first in our series on AI workshops in partnership with the Artificial Intelligence mega-powerhouse Synthwave Solutions, which we’re streaming live across all beyond locations to make learning about AI more accessible than ever – the first of its kind!
- Hosting our chic rooftop PROVADA party in collaboration with Bob W. and NORNORM at the amazing beyond Republica Campus.
- Celebrating beyond Aldgate Tower’s second anniversary in style at a birthday bash in partnership with Brookfield properties.
Opening beyond workspaces across Europe
New beyond locations popped up ALL over the continent this year – that’s right, we announced four new locations in total!
beyond The Bower and beyond Republica Campus, based in London and Amsterdam, welcomed their very first members this year, while beyond Gouden Bocht and beyond Quartier Heidestrasse (our first ever German location, in Berlin!) are set to open at the start of 2025.
It’s SUCH a pleasure to know that our community is growing, and that our sites are packed with more and more businesses who are getting to enjoy the benefits of beyond.
With that, we’re proud to share that beyond’s amazing community, across our five open locations, grew to an incredible 15,000 online members – wow! And many of our members are clearly here to stay, with a whopping 2,500 members committing, on average, to eighteen desks over 21 months!
Keep your eyes peeled though, as there’s plenty more where that came from in 2025... We’re planning to open as many as 25 new locations in the year ahead!
So, where do you think we’ll open next?
Growing the beyond team
Naturally, more locations meant more beyond team members in 2024, and so our team BOOMED – there’s now 20 employees that are part of beyond!
The amazing beyond family even jetted off to Morocco for a company retreat in November, uniting our community teams across beyond’s network. After all, how better to connect with your colleagues than over camel riding, quad biking and inspirational workshops?

Moving forward into 2025
2024 could not have been a better year for beyond.
Just as we’ve experienced countless wins and hit important milestones, it’s been just as rewarding to see our incredible member businesses do the same.
We can’t wait to see what’s in store for us and our members over the year ahead.
Roll on 2025!
