From 15th until 17th May 2012, Office Next Moscow will once again be held as the unique event for the office industry in Russia. Top international and domestic brands and experts will welcome visitors for an exchange of ideas and experience.

This year's vigorous conference programme will allow attendees to evaluate innovations and developments of the office industry in presentations and panel discussions with prominent design professionals and architects. Visitors of TALKS will get the chance to actively participate in the discussions with their questions and opinions. They will get a deep insight on topics such as effective office space usage, architectural and design trends and commercial property development in Russia with a special focus on the development of rental rates and office space in Moscow and the Moscow region.
