Webinar: What does the future hold for offices?
In this webinar we revealed some insights into how people want to work in the future, explore the challenges and opportunities of hybrid working and consider how this will impact upon the office, its design and an organisation’s wider working strategy in a post pandemic world.
We heard from:

- Alex Ferguson, Managing Director, Delta Simons on the importance of good health, well-being and innovation in creating a safe, secure and desirable workplace; and
