Come learn about and see Pega’s amazing new space in Waltham, designed at the beginning of the pandemic when they had no idea if people would come back to the office and what kind of spaces they would need if they did come! It’s a complicated real estate story with terrific workplace strategy, planning, consensus building, marketing, and design all rolled up into space that works for their employees and the company mission.

Pega now considers this space as a transformational project for the company, and it forms the basis of their world-wide planning for office space. Some highlights:

• Workplace Strategy – individual and collaborative work solutions that are functional and comfortable; radically changing the ratios
• Know Your People and focus on how they’re changing – multiple conversations, deep dives, and validation exercises
• Real Estate Strategy – working with a tough situation, making a major location move, and taking advantage of opportunities
• Incorporating marketing and corporate culture into the heartbeat of the space; bringing brand storytelling into design
• What works and what doesn’t now and what’s adjusting
• Changing role of facilities management

 
We will begin with networking at 5:30, following by a fireside chat style conversation with Pega leaders, a tour of the unique workspace and collaboration layouts, including their video production studios and maker spaces, the welcome center and conference space, and their multi-purpose rooms, followed by coffee and dessert.
