LISTEN On this week’s We’re Still Here podcast, Emily Wright is joined by EG tech reporter Lucy Alderson for a full debrief on the virtual EG Tech Awards. Now in their third year, the 2020 event went fully digital; fitting for a celebration of all things tech.
From the awards themselves to the joys of networking in virtual bars, Wright and Alderson reflect on the power and reach of virtual events and consider how a hybrid approach could impact the future of real estate events once life has returned to some kind of normality. If you missed the awards in all their green screen glory, fear not. You can check out the event for free here and find a full list of winners.
Also on this week’s podcast, Wright is joined by HB Reavis UK chief executive Steven Skinner and Stefan Schmidt, Symbiosy solutions manager for HB Reavis, to discuss the developer’s plans to launch a “ready to work” portfolio of office spaces in response to businesses’ evolving needs post-pandemic.
Combining a tech platform with physical flexibility, the company will launch the new concept at its 145,000 sq ft Bloom Clerkenwell site, EC1, in the new year to encourage firms to return safely to offices. For more, check out the story here and tune into this week’s podcast.
