With the introduction of its ‘Spotlight Series’ sessions, Workspace Design Show hopes to give the commercial interiors world some food for thought in the build up to the main event in November.

The session will discuss how recent disruption is leading to new product innovations in workspaces across the UK. All the above will be discussed at the event, which will be chaired by Daniel Gava, Brand Strategy Advisor for the Architecture and Design Industry and featuring expert insights from industry specialists who will also speak at the inaugural event in November.
