WeWork is opening an elementary school called WeGrow And it’s enlisted Bjarke Ingels to design it BY JENNY XIE NOV 6, 2017, 1:00PM EST TWEET SHARE PIN WeWork via Bloomberg WeWork, the coworking behemoth that recently scored a whopping $4.4 billion investment for expansion, is now venturing into education, Bloomberg reports. The company has begun a pilot program for a private elementary school housed near its New York City headquarters. The initiative, called WeGrow, will focus on “conscious entrepreneurship.” The pilot program has its current roster of seven 5- to-8-year-olds (including one child of WeWork founders Adam and Rebekah Neumann) spending one day at the Neumanns’s 60-acre farm for “hands-on learning” and the rest in a classroom getting lessons in business from WeWork employees and clients. “In my book, there’s no reason why children in elementary schools can’t be launching their own businesses,” Rebekah Neumann tells Bloomberg.
