Most coworking spaces in Lebanon operate out of office buildings or converted apartments. Hexa Coworking chose a different address: the shopping mall. With locations inside ABC Mall in Verdun and Spot Mall in Choueifat, Hexa is the first coworking space in Lebanon to set up inside a retail destination.
The logic is simple. Members work where they already shop, eat, and run errands. A morning of meetings can roll into lunch at a restaurant downstairs, coffee with a client at a café next door, or a quick errand at a retail outlet, all without leaving the building.
What Members Get in Verdun and Choueifat
Hexa offers professional workspaces, meeting rooms, high-speed internet, and networking opportunities for entrepreneurs, freelancers, startups, remote workers, and organizations. The setup is flexible by design, built for people who need a productive base without committing to a traditional office lease.
The mall setting adds a layer most workspaces cannot match. Services, restaurants, cafés, and shops sit under the same roof, which turns a workday into something closer to a complete daily routine. For visiting clients, the address is one everyone in the city already knows.
Opening in 2021, in the Middle of the Crisis
Hexa launched in 2021, during one of the most economically difficult periods in Lebanon's history. Businesses were closing, not opening. Hexa bet the other way: that entrepreneurs, freelancers, and remote workers would still need flexible, professional places to work, perhaps more than ever.
Since then, the space has hosted entrepreneurs, startups, business support programs, innovation initiatives, and community events. That mix has made Hexa a contributor to Lebanon's entrepreneurial ecosystem rather than just a provider of desks.
"More than just a coworking space, Hexa serves as an innovation and community hub where ideas are exchanged, collaborations are formed, and businesses can grow," says Co-Founder and CEO Haitham Saab.
Where Work, Business, and Lifestyle Overlap
Hexa positions itself as an innovation and community hub, a place where ideas are exchanged and collaborations form. The mall location reinforces that. Foot traffic, retail energy, and a constant flow of people create a different atmosphere from a quiet office floor.
Workplace trends in Lebanon, as everywhere, are shifting toward flexibility, collaboration, and experience-driven environments. Hexa's model was built for exactly that shift. Today it operates two locations, in Verdun and Choueifat, with the mall itself as part of the offer.
