#74 Insights from MIPIM: Why the Debate Over Flexibility Is Finally Over

Each year, MIPIM brings together developers, investors, and workplace innovators from around the world. In this episode, Jean-Yves Huwart, founder of Coworking Europe, speaks with Gaël Lebreton, Head of Design at Deskeo, about how attitudes toward flexibility are changing across the office industry.

They discuss:

• Why flexibility is no longer the question for landlords and occupiers • The rise of managed offices in France and beyond • How companies are rethinking long-term leases • Why workplace experience and hospitality are becoming essential • The role of design in creating better office environments

As Gaël explains, the challenge today is no longer whether flexible workspace belongs inside office buildings—but how to implement it in the best possible way.
