The New Amenities: Creating Differentiated Experiences that Engage and Attract Webinar
Thursday, Oct. 27 | 2-2:45 p.m. ET
Register online
In recent years, physical amenities have become an imperative perk to differentiate your property’s experience, but the rise of COVID-19 has shifted consumer behavior and the role of the office. Soon, pressure for employees to return to the office full time will ease, and it will be up to landlords to create a differentiated foundation for programming, engagement and collaboration that tenants want to return to that cannot be replicated at home. In this webinar, hear experts from NELSON Worldwide discuss why the traditional definition of amenities will expand to support lifestyles – both in and outside the property – and successful future perks will be a blend of digital offerings and experiential environments.
Speakers:
Deanne Erpelding, CID, IIDA, LEED AP, Principal, Central Region Leader; National Practice Leader, Asset Strategy; NELSON Worldwide
Haril A. Pandya, FAIA LEED AP, Senior VP/Managing Director, Boston; National Practice Leader, Asset Strategy; NELSON Worldwide

This session will review the results of a survey conducted of the world’s top corporate site-selectors to share their views on these trends, and how localities – urban, suburban and rural – can best position themselves in this ever-evolving economy.
