A Warm Welcome To WORKTECH20 Auckland
WORKTECH20 Auckland is the forum for all those involved in the future of work and the workplace as well as real estate, technology and innovation.
Never before has the workplace, and the way we work been so high on the agenda for organisations looking to improve productivity, attract and retain talent, and increase business return.
You are invited to join 100+ senior professionals from real estate,
facilities, HR, technology, executive management, architecture, design
and professional advisors to listen to global thought leaders and
share best practise and expertise.
The conference will be run in one stream, which means our
delegates will get to attend every speaker presentation. Alongside
the conference, we will also have a curated innovation exhibition
happening in the breakout areas for attendees to meet with our
education partners, complementing learning throughout the day.
There will be networking breaks creating time for attendees to meet
with partners and the other participants.
We hope you will be able to join us, and we are looking forward to
welcoming you to the event on the 17th of March.
Warmest regards,
Samantha

departments, alongside radical visionaries from new innovative
organisations.

people, place and technology and relevant adjacencies to reflect on
the future of work and workplace.
Alongside the conference series, the WORKTECH Academy knowledge
hub, explores the future of work through 6 key themes: people,

commentary, research, and publications, that places scientific
research at the heart of key business problems.
