Peerspace, launched in 2014 and founded by Rony Chammas and Matt Bendett, is an online peer-to-peer marketplace that connects individuals and businesses to find one-of-a-kind spaces that otherwise go unused (Peerspace, 2018). The idea emerged when Rony was a student at NYU trying to find meeting places, and saw how much open and underutilized space there was (Bercovici, 2014). Finding spaces with benefits for both parties mostly happen through word-of-mouth or platforms as Craigslist, which is inefficient. Therefore, Peerspace’s mission is to find and book short-term space through an easy and transparent process (Peerspace, 2018). Whether looking for personal or professional space, Peerspace is the solution for finding unique locations for meet-ups, pop-ups, and classes to off-sites or brainstorming sessions. Currently, Peerspace is available in the USA and the start-up has raised 18 million dollars from funders (Magistretti, 2017). The popularity of the platform goes not unnoticed as 60,000 people from world-class companies (Google, Vice) attend a Peerspace booking every month (Peerspace, 2018).
