WeWork expands hour-at-a-time office bookings

WeWork's OnDemand product that lets anyone book office space for an hour at a time is going international, expanding from the U.S. to the United Kingdom, Ireland, Singapore and Australia.

The big picture: The pandemic has given rise to a remote and hybrid work revolution, but that doesn't always mean working from home. WeWork is betting that "third workplaces" — like its offices around the world — will become hotspots for teleworkers.

The backdrop: The rise of telework initially seemed disastrous for WeWork, which has invested piles of cash into perk-laden office spaces.
