Back to work: Workplace reimagined
As companies assemble their back-to-work strategies, a key priority to many is to rethink, reshape and re-evaluate the role of workspaces. In our “Future of Workplace Experience” blog series, we asked leading workplace experts from Knotel, Ricoh and MAPP to share their thoughts on what’s next. Here’s some of the key takeaways:
More on-demand bookable spaces with controlled airflow, sanitizing stations
Hybrid modes of work – flexible working and virtual comms accelerated
Emergence of satellite offices reducing the importance of HQ building’s and campuses
Offices become a place to experience brand and culture
As we look ahead it seems that ‘work’ as we knew it, will become ‘work from anywhere’. This is a really healthy step toward a much more dynamic, flexible way of working and plays nicely into the previously emerging trends of preferred ways of working. Providing flexible technology that enables employees work seamlessly across different spaces will be more important than ever.

Wireless charging could be coming to even more devices in the future with new NFC devices offering wireless charging functionality, albeit in a way that’s far more limited than the popular Qi standard used by almost every other device.
Users can use the Magic Trackpad to wirelessly charge their devices like the iPhone or AirPods. Given that Apple has yet to release their own wireless charging mat, this sounds like it could be one way the company is approaching it.
