Key Themes

Hybrid Work: Flexible Strategies for People and Place 

The shift to hybrid work continues to redefine office design and operations. As organisations evolve to balance flexibility and engagement, insights on workplace optimisation, employee wellbeing, and new location strategies are critical. WORKTECH25 Melbourne will highlight how leading companies are adapting through research-based approaches, decentralisation, and innovative office concepts. 

Technology-Driven Transformation: AI and Future Work Models

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is reshaping business productivity, decision-making, and collaboration. WORKTECH25 Melbourne will delve into AI’s impact on competitive advantage, workforce augmentation, and the design of smarter, tech-driven workplaces. Sessions will also cover the role of AI “power users” and the future evolution of team-based innovation.

Personalised, Inclusive, and Multigenerational Workspaces 

Inclusive workspaces cater to diverse needs, offering environments where individuals of all backgrounds can thrive. The conference will showcase how companies like Medibank and others use tailored strategies, including cultural consultation, to build equitable and dynamic workplaces that prioritise health, engagement, and flexibility. 

Human Connection and the Role of Place in the Digital Era 

Workplace design is increasingly focused on cultivating emotional and spatial connection amid digital transformation. Sessions will explore concepts like topophilia (connection to place), biophilic design, and cognitive behaviours in hybrid environments, showing how strategic design can foster wellness, performance, and belonging. 

Stakeholder Collaboration and Workplace Experience 

The relationship between tenants, landlords, and developers is evolving to meet hybrid work demands. Speakers will share emerging strategies for creating shared, adaptable office spaces and fostering collaboration between stakeholders to drive employee engagement and enhance workplace experience. 

Mind blowing and eye opening. All around the world technology is changing and we need to not be left behind.
