The IFMA Foundation is proud to announce that the 2014 Workplace Strategy Summit will be held June 8-10, 2014 at the Wokefield Park Conference Centre in Berkshire, England. Organized in association with University College London, the summit will feature leading academics and experts in the fields of facility management and real estate speaking about the most innovative concepts to emerge in workplace strategy. Early registration ends March 31 and can be completed online at www.workplacestrategysummit.org.
“Building on the tremendous success of our last summit at Cornell University, we are excited to be taking the next big steps in helping those with an interest in the built environment create the workplace of the future,” said IFMA Foundation Executive Director Jeffrey J. Tafel, CAE. “The concepts and ideas developed in Berkshire could very likely be the framework for the facility management discipline in years to come.”
Presenters at the summit will include leading thinkers from the fields of design, facility management, real estate, organizational ecology, technology and management. The mix of experts and practitioners promises to offer a wide range of perspectives grounded in experience of developing and implementing innovative workplace strategies in diverse industries, organizations and national contexts. Academics from both North American and European institutions will present current and emerging research. Attendees will also be able to engage with presenters and participants from all over the globe in round-table discussions on a range of issues related to work and workplace in the 21st century.
