Latest trends in remote and hybrid working — Where are we heading?

Welcome to a hybid event with Sony Network Communications Europe

A few years ago, working from home (WFH) was a voluntary and often exceptional practice, with remote workers viewed with skepticism. Today, the concept of “being at work” has evolved into “doing work” irrespective of location, as most knowledge workers have embraced remote working. However, do we truly understand the implications of remote work on such a large scale to make informed decisions? In this breakfast seminar, you will gain insights from the latest research on remote and hybrid working in five Scandinavian companies. We will explore trends in office presence, changes to corporate work policies, and significant transformations in the workplace. Join us to discuss and understand the future of work in an increasingly remote world.

Welcome to join at us at the office in Malmö or online!
