The last twelve months have been
extraordinarily challenging for us all. While we have been unable
to bring our members together in person at the flagship events we know
our members enjoy, we have worked to continue to offer the maximum
possible value to our members in the current virtual world. To
illustrate this, since April 2020 we have:
- Hosted 50+ digital events, including topical panel
discussions, research launches and virtual tours
- Facilitated the opportunity to meet industry peers
online and network on digital platforms
- Hosted 5 Regional Awards events on a virtual platform,
which allowed guests to network face-to-face and watch the
announcement of the regional winners live on a virtual stage
- Celebrated the achievements of young professionals in
our sector at the Virtual NextGen Awards, an online ceremony,
which has since been viewed over 1,000 times on YouTube
- BCO NextGen brought back it's Design Competition,
where entrants were asked to share their vision of the
Post Pandemic Office of 2025
- Published 11 Research Reports and Briefing Notes
- Set up a CPD certified online learning course, which
aims to increase understanding of best practice in office
design, development, and occupation
- Launched a national mentoring programme, with senior
BCO members providing support and guidance to our NextGen members
in group or one-to-one online sessions
- Launched 'The New Normal', a weekly interview series with prominent members of the
BCO on the immediate impact of the coronavirus crisis, and what
the new normal might look like once it has passed
- Launched #BCOvoices on LinkedIn, which
brings together different BCO members, all sharing their thoughts
on how we can work effectively at this time and in the future.

NEW 2021 VIDEO SERIES
Last year, the BCO recorded a series of interviews called ‘The New Normal’
where Richard Kauntze, the BCO’s Chief Executive, talked to leading figures
from across the office sector, as well as a few special guests. The series
focused on the immediate impact of Covid-19.
Following on from ‘The New Normal’ comes ‘The Office Briefing’ which will see
Richard explore our way out of the pandemic and broader issues through
conversations with members, economists, academics and more special guests.
We are delighted that our first guest in this new series of interviews
is Co-President, Political Risk Advisory at Teneo - Wolfango (Wolf)
Piccoli. Watch it on our YouTube channel now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fWnivE0z28o
