What future for CBDs?

Bartier Perry is proud to sponsor this Australian Institute of Urban Studies (AIUS) event. 

The Covid pandemic made ghost towns of Australia’s major city centres. To which was added the sudden success of virtual meetings empowering the decades long struggle to free work from commuting. But the jury is still out on questions of productivity, collaboration, office space forecasts and the future of our CBDs. Join David Harding for an update on what lies ahead for our city centres.

Guest presenter: David Harding, Executive Director Business NSW

Its purpose is to provide a strong, clear leadership voice for businesses on important economic and financial issues.
