12:00 PM – 12:40 PM: Exploring the Relationship Between Tenants, Brokers and Owners

The hybrid working era has demanded that both employers and real estate developers and operators reimagine the workplace and how the office can enhance employee engagement and productivity. So what do tenants actually care about today? Hear directly from leading corporate occupiers, landlords and brokers on the most heavily utilized amenities and property features that are converting to new or renewed leases, and the trends defining the future of the workplace while boosting employee productivity and excitement for in-office collaboration.

The future looks bright for the office leasing market, and as the needs of tenants continues to evolve in the current market conditions, owners and brokers have had to change the way they approach collaboration with potential occupiers.  The market has seen financial service firms, law firms and hospitals taking large amounts of space and repurposing it for their specific needs.  What role does the broker play in facilitating mutually beneficial agreements that meets the needs of both the tenant and the landlord? What property improvements and amenities can owners consider to make vacant space more attractive to tenants in specific sectors? For owners and brokers who are currently successful in leasing large amounts of space to new tenants, what are the cornerstones they are using to foster successful deals?
