We kicked off our multi-city event series on Wednesday, July 28 at wework’s very cool new space in Tysons Corner, VA. Led by moderator Zak Kidd, Co-founder, and COO of Swingspace, the panel touched on several subjects around how the notion of the workplace is changing and how we work today and may work in the future. Even though it was the end of the typical work day, wework was buzzing with activity in addition to our event, which added another layer to our discussion about the nature of work!
Our panel represented diverse viewpoints and experiences which facilitated the very lively discussion.
The spirited discussion began with each panelist’s self-introduction – Kyle predicted he would have the least to say, but as a representative of the “end user” community he contributed an important perspective to a panel made up of workspace professionals. Kyle said that while he is not a designer, architect or engineer, he gets the benefit of the work of great architectural and engineering design!
Kley, speaking for wework space and talked about their mission to provide space that helps people do business better. He also appreciated Kyle’s participation in that the voice from those who are not architects and designers are the audience they are trying to reach so to demonstrate that life within your office can be more exciting.
