Umesh Sahhaaii, Chairman and CEO of the Entrepreneur Facilitation Centre (EFC), is a visionary leader in India’s co-working space industry. His compelling entrepreneurial journey of 15 years has been driven by a passion for turning ideas into reality, motivated by a desire to create wealth for society rather than just personal gain. This life philosophy inspired him to establish EFC to disrupt the co-working industry.
EFC’s business model not only provides co-working spaces but also world-class services at affordable prices. India has the third-largest number of tech-driven startups, and EFC’s integral approach caters to the growing demand for flexible and cost-effective co-working spaces. Sahhaaii emphasizes the importance of providing convenience, the latest technology, and minimal costs to support the growth of modern businesses.
The biggest challenge for Sahhaaii and his team was transitioning into the organized real estate sector and changing clients’ traditional office mindsets. Overcoming this challenge, Sahhaaii and his team have successfully positioned EFC as a profitable and reputable brand. There is a lot to learn and reflect on in this candid conversation.
