Flexible workspaces in Riyadh’s Olaya district are approaching 90 percent occupancy, according to JLL findings reported by Arab News on 9 October 2026.
King Abdullah Financial District occupancy was in the mid-80 percent range. Together, the two districts represented 45 percent of the capital’s flexible workspace supply.
International companies support demand
JLL said international businesses make up 50 to 60 percent of occupiers, while new company setups account for 55 to 60 percent of inquiries.
Operators are improving meeting facilities, technology and services for hybrid working. JLL expects private offices to gain market share as providers focus on revenue growth.
