Spaces that are industry specific and as such are able to give the support, networking opportunities, and advice that their clients need in order to grow. This is particularly relevant to Manila, where [Colliers predicted that the supply of coworking spaces would have an annual increase of 10% over the next three years.](http://www.bworldonline.com/content.php?section=TopStory&title=demand-seen-rising-for-flexible-work-spaces&id=142581) However, with this increased supply comes the need for operators to differentiate - to set themselves a part from the crowd, because not everyone wants to be at a vanilla space. Entrepreneurs and startups need to be surrounded by a community that understands them - whether that's by working in a space with a curated group of members or a curated set of services.  So with that in mind, here's a short - but sweet - list of some of the, what we'll call niche [coworking spaces in Manila](https://explore.flyspaces.com/en/manila-coworking-spaces?hsLang=en-us).
