Strata

Jake Shuckburgh, Director of People at Strata, recently shared his thoughts in an EVCOM (Event & Visual Communication Association) article by Chantelle Dietz about balancing remote and in-office work in the events industry. With 28% of working adults in Great Britain adopting hybrid work by autumn 2024 (ONS), how does this model work in a sector where collaboration and on-site presence are vital? At Strata, flexibility is key. As Jake explains, “Mandating five days a week in the office would disadvantage us in retaining and attracting talent.” Instead, Strata embraces hybrid work while ensuring new hires build vital face-to-face connections. We’re in the business of making moments matter.” https://lnkd.in/e2um8-3u ---------------------- 👋 We’re Strata, we’d love to talk 👌We create brand experiences 👊 #EveryMomentMatters 💪 Creatively led, insight driven & global in our reach 📍London•Brackley See more from us: 🔔 Ring the bell on our profile to be notified of all our posts #️⃣ Follow #StrataCreates ➕ Connect with us #MakingMomentsMatter #EventProfs #EventProfsUK #EventsManager #EventIndustry #MICE #EventIdeas #BrandExperience

Yesterday our Group Head of Strategic Meetings Management, Caroline Lumgair Wiseman had the pleasure of attending the IBTM Forum of Advocacy in Barcelona. The event bought together a select group of Senior Leaders and Policy Makers from across the global Business Events sector to spark a transformative dialogue. This forum was designed to elevate the conversation around key advocacy issues in our industry, spotlight real-world solutions, and explore ways we can collaboratively build a stronger, more inclusive event economy that drives benefits for all. With the global value of business events now estimated at £1.3 trillion, these conversations have never been so important. A hugely insightful event, and one we were thrilled to be part of. #IBTMWorld #TheBusinessOfEvents #ForumOfAdvocacy ---------------------- 👋 We’re Strata, we’d love to talk 👌 We create brand experiences 👊 #EveryMomentMatters 💪 Creatively led, insight driven & global in our reach 📍 London•Brackley See more from us: 🔔 Ring the bell on our profile to be notified of all our posts #️⃣ Follow #StrataCreates ➕ Connect with us #BrandExperience #BusinessGrowth #Strata #EventProfs #StrataGroup #EventIndustry
