Objective - This study is conducted to investigate the acceptance level of Bumiputra entrepreneurs that register with a government agency in Malaysia on the concept of co-working space related to operator supports (OS), facilities (F), and social and business networking (SBN), to use (IU).

Methodology/Technique - About 2,000 Bumiputra entrepreneurs were contacted via e-mail, and only 267 responded. The data were analysed using SPSS Software, and Cronbach's Alpha is more than 0.900 for OS, F, SBN, and IU. Hence all items can be used to measure the constructs.

Finding - Most respondents perceive OS, F, and SBN to be helpful and have a positive and significant relationship with the intention to use (IU) co-working space.

Novelty - Hence, it is recommended for the relevant government agencies with unutilized office premises to convert their office spaces into co-working spaces, as the findings have shown that most Bumiputra entrepreneurs intend to use co-working spaces and perceive them to be helpful.
