Starting from the individual’s workspace to the physical buildings and extending up to wider areas such as campuses, sports stadiums and airports, global enterprises are seeking to reimagine their existing physical infrastructure with an overlay of digital technologies to transform people experience, create a collaborative culture, become more sustainable by conserving resources, and achieve higher operational efficiencies.
These spaces are designed for human interactions with the environment, with each other and the systems around, to realize the required outcome and should have a great experience achieving the outcome.
The hallmark of a successful company is seen in the value it places on employees and its assets. Some of the key trends faced by our clients are as follows:
- 63% of millennials work for companies that offer personalized work experience and flexible work environment. Millennials will make up 50% of all workers in 2020 and beyond.

- Energy usage in data centers are doubling every 5 years, and in US, approximately 900 MMT of greenhouse gases are being generated by commercial buildings alone.
