Office Space - The Age of Optimizing, Modernizing and Economizing


Please join FEI San Diego in welcoming a highly regarded panel of commercial real estate experts who will be discussing how a global crisis has shifted the landscape of commercial real estate. We will explore the relationships between market dynamics, trends for workplace optimization, and real estate as a tool for employee recruitment and retention.

The confluence of events from the past 4 years has impacted the underpinnings of the commercial office market in ways none of us have experienced. In an evolving market with employers racing to understand the business and social implications of the modern workplace, what are the best strategies to foster success?  
 
Learning objectives:
  •  An exploration into the importance of understanding the macro and micro drivers influencing commercial real estate asset classes and how that impacts the occupier’s opportunities, the procurement process, and economic outcomes.
  • Gaining an understanding of the broader definition of optimization as it relates to commercial office space today. Gone are the days of optimization being defined as a reduction in square feet per employee.
  • A discussion around how cultural initiatives, innovative design, and technology are impacting the employee experience and being used as a competitive advantage.

AGENDA:
7:30 AM – 8:00 AM     Registration & continental breakfast
8:00 AM – 9:00 AM     Speaker Presentation
