The Symbiosis of

Smart Buildings &Smart Workplaces

imagine your workplace of the future

is it greener?

greenis it technology rich?

is it highly personalised?

is it connected to a local community?

is it fully integrated into your building?

is it connected to the cloud?

is it connected to things?

we may not know the future…but we can see that technology has already dramatically changed the
