BIZcomfort Akitsu: A New Hub for Work and Learning in Tokyo

On December 15, 2025, a new co-working space, BIZcomfort Akitsu, will officially open its doors in the Akitsu area of Higashimurayama, Tokyo. Operated by WOOC Co., Ltd., this accessible 24-hour shared office is designed to meet the needs of commuters and students in a bustling transit location.

A Strategic Location for Commuters

Situated just a 2-minute walk from Shin-Akitsu Station (JR Musashino Line) and 3 minutes from Akitsu Station (Seibu Ikebukuro Line), BIZcomfort Akitsu occupies a prime position in a busy transit corridor. This makes it an ideal resting point for individuals commuting from neighboring cities, such as Tokorozawa and Niiza, before or after their work and study commitments. The facility promotes a variety of work styles, including telecommuting during the day and self-study in the evenings.

Connection and Community Growth

The Akitsu area is currently receiving heightened attention due to a planned direct train service connecting Shin-Akitsu and Seibu Tokorozawa Stations, projected for completion by 2028. This initiative aims to ease the current 400-meter transfer distance, improving convenience for daily commuters. However, local shop owners have expressed concerns that increased commuter traffic could detract from foot traffic in local shopping streets. In response, BIZcomfort Akitsu aims to collaborate with local businesses to create a win-win situation for customers, shop owners, and residents.

Building a Local Information Hub

BIZcomfort Akitsu will not only serve as a workspace but also as a community information hub that highlights local charm through a focus on people rather than businesses. The facility will feature maps and flyers introducing nearby stores and their unique offerings, fostering serendipitous connections and enriching local interactions. This initiative seeks to help shops cultivate regular clientele and reconnect members with their community, thereby contributing to the vibrancy of local shopping streets.

Pre-Opening Events

In celebration of its grand opening, BIZcomfort Akitsu will host preview tours and free co-working space trials from December 12 to December 14, 2025, between 9:30 AM and 6:00 PM (final reception at 5:00 PM). Reservations for these events can be made through their website until December 13, with ongoing bookings accepted thereafter. Media representatives are also invited to discover the space; pre-arranged visits are encouraged.
