BMC, the leading workplace solutions company, hosted a business event this week in Kuwait City exploring the positive impact of effective design and layout in the workplace. Co-hosted by Steelcase, a partner of BMC in Kuwait, the event showcased the findings of their recent research entitled "Power of Place".
A number of expert speakers outlined how a well-designed workplace can increase engagement, wellbeing, productivity and be a competitive advantage for organizations.
BMC is part of the Al-Yaqout Group, a privately held company based in Kuwait. Its Chairman and Vice Chair, Omar Al-Yaqout and Abdul Aziz Al-Yaqout were in attendance at the event and delivered opening speeches to more than 100 guests from Kuwait's public and private sectors.
Mohammed Al-Arab, Executive Manager of BMC, said: "We are delighted to have hosted delegates at our Power of Place event and thanks to Steelcase for shedding light on some of the trends and insights into effective workplace design."
Fabien Lamothe of Steelcase added: "It's easy to apply a one-size-fits-all approach to workplace design, but in reality, a design solution needs to be tailor made according to a particular set of organizational objectives and requirements of its employees. That's what we aim to do with every individual case, to ensure that an organization is operating at its absolute best in an increasingly complex and competitive economic environment."
Salem Taha, Division Manager - Office Furnishing Solutions at BMC, added: "This event was a real success in bringing together representatives from across the industry. We're delighted to have worked with Steelcase for many years, bringing the best solutions available in the market to our customers in Kuwait. "
