BCO IN 2030: Our evolving workplaces
Be part of an interactive session where the Technical Affairs
Committee (TAC) will showcase the newly released BCO Guide to
Fit Out. This is your chance to provide valuable feedback and help
shape its future direction. The TAC will also highlight the key areas
they are currently working on, offering a behind-the-scenes look at
how evolving workstreams are reshaping office space design. Join
the conversation and learn how your input will directly influence
the upcoming updates to the Guide to Specification and Guide to
Fit-Out. Do not miss out on this opportunity to drive the future of
workplace design!
The Next Generation of the BCO workshop aims to shape the
future of the workplace. Through presentations and interactive
sessions, NextGen members will share insights on key topics:
desired workplace features, technology, sustainability, and
culture. Participants from across the membership will then
collaborate to envision the future of the BCO and the workplace
sector. The goal is to identify innovative approaches, strengthen
collaboration, and ensure the BCO remains relevant in the
evolving workplace landscape. Workshop outcomes will be
displayed during the conference and summarized in a post-event
research paper.
