In this webinar, a panel of prominent investors from key Asia Pacific markets discusses how prospects for the asset class are changing. Do occupiers still want conventional office space?

CBD vs. Work from Home – How Demand for Office Space is Changing
Wednesday, 11 November 2020 | 9AM HKT (GMT+8)
(Past webinar)
In the brave new world of social distancing, landlords must face the reality that today’s workspaces are fundamentally different to what they were. With work-from-home an established trend, demand for CBD offices is falling, while flexible workspaces are subject to cross-currents of both rising and falling demand. But are these influences here to stay, or will they fade? We ask a panel of investors, developers, and occupiers how the dynamics of the office industry will evolve.
