Meeting. Status. A principal business instrument on how to move swiftly forward, agree, and allocate tasks in a clear, organised and effective manner. At first glance, the easiest thing which often results in a struggle of ideas, space for definition of positions, and game establishing who is the smarter one.

The growing number of the world’s population goes hand in hand with increasing food consumption. Standard resources and manners of food production are no longer sufficient and it is thus high time that we start seeking new possibilities. What will our diet be like in the future?

New Deloitte Building: Classic Corporate Environment Is a Matter of the Past, We Have Moved to a Completely Different Administrative Building

The task was clear: we said “no” to another classic office, we aimed for a unique building with a new interior that uses modern technologies for its everyday operation. A building with an interior that will induce a family like environment and make our employees feel comfortable. This is what Churchill I, Deloitte’s new headquarters, is like. For example, it makes use of energy recuperation and it uses water from the retention reservoirs for watering the green vegetation enclosing the building. The office building at Vinohrady in Prague is designed as a tree with branches – there are 7 floors “stemming” from the trunk. The new premises recently hosted the latest Deloitte SheXo club meeting.
