Abstract: Are coworking spaces (CSs) ephemeral or sustainable? This article aims to answer this question by analysing CSs in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region (France) before and after the COVID-19 crisis. The results obtained show that CSs are resilient in the face of the health crisis and that ECW creators have an optimistic view of the future of coworking. This sustainability of CSs seems to be linked to their ability to meet personal and professional needs that traditional workplaces have not been able to satisfy until now.
