Companies of today face the challenge of adapting their workspaces to the new realities of work. Many organizations find themselves with excess office space due to reduced in-office presence, while still needing to create environments that foster collaboration, innovation, and employee well-being.

To succeed in this new era, businesses must rethink their approach to workspace design and use. With data-driven insights and proven strategies, companies can optimize their office footprint, invest in quality over quantity, and create agile, high-impact workspaces that drive business success.

In this interactive event, we will explore how organizations can do better with less. How the workspaces can support the evolving needs of teams, boost well-being, and improve the quality of face-to-face time.
