06/01/20 • 31 min

In this episode I chat with The Instant Group's Director of Enterprise, Helena Hughes about the impact of the pandemic on the world of flex and co-working. We discuss the challenges facing organisations with large owned and leased real estate portfolios and how flex working may provide as an attractive solution to enable transition back to the office. We also touch on facility management and office servicing, discussing how these may be influenced by technology and also how as a result, office life may change (or may not!).

Some fascinating insights!
