Founded by Adam Neumann and Miguel McKelvey
As far as land goes, this was a small start with only a few locations, the land and resources needed were very few.

After launching the initial idea to investors, WeWork successful got investors to fund the project. Along with their main location, they had several other smaller locations. This took up more land and required more labor to operate. They needed less employees than other companies as their service were autonomous for the most part.
