Greece has seen a consistent rise in the number of digital nomads and foreign professionals selecting it as their work destination. Data from ViOS, a Greek company specializing in coworking spaces, reveals that international users in Athens constitute roughly 30%-40% of their total membership, with most coming from the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, France, and Scandinavian countries.

Digital nomads represent a notable portion of this demographic, drawn to Athens for its reasonable living costs, pleasant weather, and excellent links to other European destinations.

Freelancers, startups, digital nomads, and hybrid employees from large multinational firms are the primary users of coworking spaces in Athens, thanks to their central locations, cutting-edge facilities, and opportunities for networking with peers. In regional areas, coworking users differ slightly, with local small businesses, tech professionals, and researchers being the dominant groups. Here, lower costs and the need for high-quality spaces away from big cities are key factors.

Co-working spaces are on the rise in the Greek capital, with round-the-clock access, wellness amenities and fast internet, attracting diverse professionals from the tech world, as well as marketing and advertising specialists and startups. Freelancers also seem to favor Athenian co-working spaces for their flexibility, with Lisbon and Barcelona among their other top choices.
