From students to young graduates, news paths to enter the professional landscape are emerging. Modern communication, technologies and the ubiquity of internet access makes it possible to work from wherever, whenever: facilitating the contemporary ‘gig-economy’.

In response to this phenomenon, a workplace evolution has been taking place in which new, serviced working environments emerging going far beyond the traditional office are emerging.

This panel discussion focused on the hard investments into German PBSA: major new projects and transactions, yields/ROIs, demand-supply imbalances, differences in investment interest by location, shifting student demands and product type.
