Launching a Community-Focused Coworking Space: ii Office Shizu by Sakulounge

Introducing the New ii Office Shizu by Sakulounge

In the heart of Sakura City, a region that has supported local businesses for years, ii Office has officially launched its newest coworking space, ii Office Shizu by Sakulounge. This venture is not just about creating a workspace; it is about fostering community engagement and support through convenience and innovation.

A Partnership for Growth

Operating under the umbrella of ii Office—an organization that boasts nearly 900 workspaces across all 47 prefectures in Japan—this initiative involves collaboration with Sakura Jo Construction Co., Ltd. The latter has been a beloved residential company in Sakura since its inception in 1980. The company is extending its community-oriented services by opening a rental space, Sakulounge, intended for local gatherings and work-related activities.

Recognizing the need for operational efficiency, ii Office introduced an advanced automation system known as E Solution into the Sakulounge facility. The traditional approach required staff to frequently move between floors to assist clients, which added unnecessary pressure to their workload. With E Solution, the need for constant staff presence is significantly reduced while keeping customer service intact.

The Benefits of E Solution

The decision to implement E Solution stemmed from a vision to turn the rental space into a dynamic coworking space, reflecting the changing landscape of work environments. The following factors influenced the decision to choose E Solution:

- Community Contribution: By integrating an accessible system, the initiative aims to create an infrastructure that supports diverse working styles and educational needs within the community.
- A Second Workspace for Employees: This facility will not only cater to local residents but also serves as an effective workspace for company employees, establishing a productive environment.
- A Personal Experience from Leadership: The company’s president, who has utilized ii Office facilities regularly, recognized the impact of a user-friendly system and advocated for its deployment at Sakulounge. This first-hand experience was pivotal in the decision to incorporate E Solution.

What to Expect at ii Office Shizu

Located conveniently within a five-minute walk from Keisei Shizu Station and adjacent to National Route 296, the ii Office Shizu by Sakulounge is a welcoming coworking and shared office space.

Featuring a cafe-like atmosphere, the facility is equipped with high-speed Wi-Fi, ample power outlets, and free beverages, making it an ideal spot for productivity. The support services include free rentals for PC monitors and charging cables, which allows guests to arrive without prior preparation and still access a comfortable work environment. Moreover, for important online meetings, dedicated teleconference booths are available.

For organizations needing space for workshops or small group meetings, private meeting rooms are also at hand.

Additionally, a special discount plan for students assists them in finding a popular study space.

Ample free parking for up to 12 vehicles ensures that business professionals on the go can easily access the space.

Understanding E Solution's Functionality

E Solution, developed by ii Office, stands out as an innovative operational management system. By integrating a smart lock with apps and a management interface, it automates check-ins, payments, entrance, and appointment management, facilitating unmanned operations. This proactive system includes remote monitoring capabilities through AI cameras, enhancing security without elevating staffing costs.

With the introduction of E Solution, not only are sales increases and cost reductions achievable, but there is also the added benefit of increased visibility through an SEO-optimized website and app listings. The ii Office team remains supportive post-implementation, sharing data and insights to help address any challenges faced.
