Anticafé, 5 Franchisees, Est'd in 2013, Paris HQ

- 2000+ Investor Views
Anticafé is an innovative concept–people pay for the time they spend and not for the consumption - which is in-between a co-working space, a traditional coffee place and it is very comfortable, like Home. Leonid Goncharov opened the first one in Paris in 2013 and soon enough it was a big success (6 spaces open afterwards in Paris and also in Rome!).
What is the reason of this success? As changes are happening very quickly in the way people work (increasing number of freelancers) and collaborate, Anticafé represents an answer to them as people can meet, create, work, share or dream at Anticafé.
Given the company’s ambitious vision to create a community of spaces and people around the world and given an increasing demand to open them (more than 1000 demands have been received so far from all over the world !), Anticafé developed and launched an innovative franchising system by the end of 2017. At the moment, there are 7 open spaces + 9 ongoing projects in France (candidates from all the major cities of France have already been validated).
