Profound change in the behaviour of organisations and individuals does not come easy.

In the first session, designers, thought leaders and innovative organisations will share differing points of view on distributed work, based on studies, best-practices and recommendations. Vitra will present, in a 90-minute format, new research and the organisational and spatial approach it implemented in its operations to respond to a permanently altered working mode after 2020. The first session will coincide with the publication of Vitra’s next e-paper on the topic of distributed work.
