Even if it doesn't, it will have paved the way for dozens of similar companies operating with variations on its co-working model

Correct me if I'm off the mark here but no it hasn't? I feel that the path was already paved via locally owned/operated (and sometimes locally franchised) coworking spaces who have existed and fared well before the likes of WeWork and even Regus.
