Let's turn our attention toward the office. What role will it play in a future scenario? This fateful question will be answered by trend forecaster and interior architect Nadia Tolstoy and a panel bristling with expertise.

Welcome to an evening at Tengbom where we'll investigate the power of the office in terms of attracting talent and strengthening your business. What does the physical office mean in a digital age - and to a generation of employees that don't particularly care about the traditional structure of it all? Why do we even need it?

Understanding these fundamental components isn't only crucial to employers looking to survive in an increasingly global and disruptive market. It's equally important for property developers and investors attempting to create attractive spaces. If future revenue lies in fulfilling each company's unique DNA - how do we facilitate their micro needs on a macro scale?

We say: let's solve this equation together and co-create The Holy Office.

18:00 Welcome!
18:30 Office trend forecast by Nadia Tolstoy

19:30 Something to eat and drink


PS. Take a simple thing like coffee, for instance - how will that work at the office of the future?
