9. Events Will Change, with Jen Williams of the Property Council

Events Will Change.  How physical events will look different in a post pandemic world, with Jen Williams, Deputy Executive Director for the Property Council in Queensland.

This is the second in a series of episodes focusing on emerging future trends in commercial real estate driven by the pandemic

In this discussion, Jen shares a range of very relevant perspectives, including the PCA’s involvement in the pandemic driven regulation on commercial real estate and the outcome reached; how the broad spectrum of the PCA’s members are currently faring; how the PCA itself is easing its way back into the office (for now?); and what the PCA’s events business looks like now, and might look like in future, and extrapolating from there to how we will all engage physically in the future.
