There are now 321 remote working facilities throughout the country.
And according to figures from the Department of Rural and Community Development, there are 12,200 registered users.
At one of the connected hubs in Edgeworthstown, Co Longford, a vacant Ulster Bank building has been turned into a thriving hi-tech working hub - and as a result the whole town is feeling the impact.
Timmy Fisher is a software engineer for multi-national fitness software company Glofox. Originally from Dublin, he moved to Edgeworthstown four years ago.
"I worked in Dublin and lived there and moved to Edgeworthstown four years ago with my wife who lives here. I worked at home for over two years and a few days in Dublin.
"Then Covid hit and I went fully remote and when Co-Worx opened I started coming here," he explained.
"It gives me a good social element to work. At home, it was isolating. Here I can go for coffee with people and have lunch with people".
Timmy also said the co-working space bring more focus.
"At home, there's lot of distractions. I've another colleague John working here now too so it's nice for both of us to be able to collaborate.
"This makes working remotely long term more realistic. You can interact with people and there's a great community here," he added.
Jenna Farrell is a relatively recent arrival to Co-Worx. A New Zealand native, she was living in Melbourne, Australia with family. After the pandemic, they decided to return to Ireland but never intended staying.
However, their plans changed, and they've made their home in north Longford. Jenna needed to find a working space with good broadband.
"What's really made this special is the network and the community here"
She runs a company called Scopey, a software company which helps service providers get paid fairly for the amount of time they spend on a job.
"I didn't realise Ireland was such an amazing country for start-ups and tech, so we decided to make this our home," she said.
"I had to find a space with good internet because we're living on a farm, and the internet is very poor," she said.
"Not only did it have great internet but what's really made this special is the network and the community here," she said.
"Since coming to Co-Worx, I've been introduced to the whole tech start-up eco system and it's really helped springboard Scopey for me," she added.
The Department of Rural Affairs says there will be 400 hubs by next year.
The Western Development Commission, which runs the Connect Hubs Network - says the average occupancy across the ConnectedHubs.ie network is currently 76%, which is up from 52% this time last year.
So are more workers being persuaded away from working at their kitchen tables and opting remote working hubs instead?
Clare McEnroe is on the committee behind Co-Worx, which is now at 75% occupancy.
She puts its success down to a number of factors.
"A recent survey we did with workers here found there was huge emphasis on the social element. Yes, they could do their work from home, but they actually like to come in here to meet people. There's opportunities," she said.
She added: "The key words that came up were - the opportunities and the knock-on effect. It creates ambition in the town and one of board members once remarked, a rising tide lifts all boats and that's what we want to do".
It's that rising tide that is being felt by businesses like Bia Deas. The restaurant was opened by Seamus Gilchrist ten years ago and in recent times, business is feeling the impact of renewal and change in the town.
"In 2013 when I opened this it was a small little café. There was only three employed at the time" he said.
"Then Co-Worx opened, a new library opened, and we expanded and I've eight staff now and during the summer I've about ten," he explains.
"You can see Edgeworthstown is getting its mojo back and the locals have been fantastic," he said.
Not willing to rest on their laurels, locals here believe remote working will secure a better future for everyone.
