The coronavirus pandemic has altered lives and made business situations complex than ever before, giving rise to new norms in working. Though people have been successful in getting some types of work done remotely and over the video, a large section of the workforce is struggling with the generative work that creates new ideas and solves complex problems. After months of working apart, employees now say the main reason they want to return to the office is to be with other people, socialize, and collaborate in ways that just aren’t possible remotely. 

Welcoming Antares to the Steelcase family, Uli Gwinner, President, Steelcase Asia Pacific said, “The sudden shift in workspace dynamics accelerated by the Covid-19 pandemic has further propelled the importance of creating workspaces that are both employee-centric as well as collaborative. At Steelcase, we’re striving to balance the need for such compelling spaces with the need for safety. In collaboration with Antares, we are delighted to bring the best of our partner products and solutions that support this vision.”

As the financial hub of India and one of the most densely populated cities in the country, it was imperative to cater to the new working preferences of the city’s remote workers and office goers. Under our partnership with Antares, we are really excited to bring an exclusive, dedicated experience centre in Mumbai consisting of some of the most exciting partner brands. This marks an important milestone for Steelcase as we continue to remain invested in transforming workspaces in India with our user-centric, sustainable, smart, and interconnected solutions.”
