As employee expectations shift, experience takes centre stage and work behaviours evolve, it has never been more important to bring together the latest insights and innovations in workplace and facilities products and services. The Workplace Event, a first of its kind, is an evolution of the Facilities Event and brings a wider scope and sharper focus on employee experience and workplace performance providing opportunities for workplace leaders and market innovators to come together to share best practice.
The Workplace Event’s aim is to unite the leading thinkers and organisations from the world of facilities, workplace strategy and design, interiors, furniture providers, real estate and technology; to provide a powerful platform to help organisations elevate their workplace performance and strategy.
