On behalf of BeLuxCham, we would like to invite our members to participate in the upcoming BELUXTALKS Series (physical event) regarding The Convenience of Work From Home (WFH) or Work In Office (WIO) that will be held on Thursday, 28 October 2021 at 7:00 PM to 9:30 PM at the Equatorial Hotel.

Due to the pandemic, there has been a new trend that has been set by many employees, but what is truly the ideal working environment for many working adults? The ideals of WFH and WIO bring many advantages and disadvantages as well however distinguishing between both while finding the ideal situation for ourselves and even for employees remains to be a million-dollar question.
