[edit] Using Nature-Inspired Design to Foster Workplace Wellness

The Wellness and Biophilia Symposium will take place on 6 and 7 June 2019 at BRE Watford. It will coincide with the launch of BRE’s Biophilic Office, a research project that will gather evidence about the impacts of nature-inspired design and technology on people and business.

The symposium will address questions such as:

• How can nature-inspired design foster office occupant wellness?
• What are the key interventions that can capitalise on the return on investment in an office refurbishment?

The immersive and interactive two-day event will also include:

• An array of speakers on biophilic design and the latest research.
• Site tours to ‘biophilic’ themed satellite projects and showcases in the nearby Greater London area.
• A networking experience with like-minded health and wellbeing experts, building system and technology experts, real estate and HR professionals from around the world.
• Conference sessions.
• Workshops.
• Demonstrations of biophilic and wellness-related innovations, products and services.
