The Wing was a women-focused, co-working space collective and proprietary club with offices in New York City, Washington, D.C., San Francisco, Chicago, Los Angeles, and Boston. It was founded by Audrey Gelman and Lauren Kassan in 2016., the club has about 10,000 members. At its peak The Wing had eleven locations in two countries; there were seven branches in the USA.
The Wing initially only accepted people who identify as women or non-binary, but to comply with non-discrimination laws began accepting people of any gender identity.
After complaints about how The Wing failed to address racist behavior of its members, and an employee walkout, Gelman stepped down as CEO in June 2020.
On August 30, 2022, The Wing ceased operations "effective immediately." This announcement was issued by email to its members, many of whom took to the company's still-active social media to express disdain about the short notice communication.
