Siemens Global (Switzerland), Max Life Insurance (India), Skyscanner (London) and Deloitte (U.S.) are some of the global organisations that will give the virtual delegates of Workplace Week International 2020 (9th – 12th November) a window into their future work strategy.
The four-day festival will showcase how some organisations are navigating the challenges of 2020, transforming their workplace models and using science, innovation and new working practices to enhance employee wellbeing, sustainability and business performance.
Organiser Advanced Workplace Associates (AWA) has created a stellar programme of more than 20 virtual corporate case studies, cornerstone panel sessions with industry experts, and sponsor events. The week will shine a timely and valuable light on how organisations are transforming their workplace models, technology and infrastructure against a backdrop of COVID-19, globalisation, climate change, and significant socio-economic change.
All proceeds through registration will be donated to the festival’s international charity partners: BBC Children in Need in the UK; Make a Wish in France, Brazil, Switzerland and India; and the I Have a Dream Foundation in the U.S. – boosting the $100,000+ total already raised to date in the U.K. and U.S. throughout Workplace Week’s 10-year legacy.
