Both Lunden and Kuchler reported that the project is being worked on in Facebook’s London office, and Lunden said in June that it was unclear whether what she called FB@Work at the time would be an internal enterprise communications platform, or something more along the lines of LinkedIn, adding that it was also unclear whether the company had any hopes of monetizing FB@Work, or whether it would simply be offered as a set of free tools.
