Clerkenwell Design Week will also mark the official launch of the new BeSmart® Innovation Hub, a dedicated destination showcasing the future of intelligent storage, connected workplaces and smart locker technology

TALK | The Invisible Workplace

To kickstart Clerkenwell Design Week, Bisley and Dezeen will host The Invisible Workplace - a live panel discussion exploring how smart technology is quietly reshaping the way we work.

Hosted within the newly launched BeSmart® Innovation Hub, the conversation will explore how AI, connected technologies and smart infrastructure are influencing workplace behaviour, experience and the future role of the office.

The panel features Brandon Lutz from PLAUD AI, Sam Farrant from Smart Spaces and Megan Dobstaff, Design Director at Gensler, with the discussion chaired by Dezeen and hosted by Shaun Reaney, Bisley’s BeSmart Technology Manager.

The event will be followed by networking drinks and a light lunch with a curated A&D audience.
