In 2019, New Oriental signed a lease with the Company for over 200 workstations to establish its business in Jinan.

Furthermore, the all-inclusive cost structure helps us save utilities and internet costs. We look forward to deepening our relationship with Ucommune as we continue to explore more collaborative opportunities."

Dr. Daqing Mao, Founder of Ucommune, commented, "One of our core values is to provide a new style of work space that allows greater interaction between our community members to help spark innovation. We remain committed to our mission of cultivating this new working culture anchored in the four foundations of sharing, innovation, responsibility, and success for all.
