Are you interested in what the metropolis will look like in 20 years? Does the Prague exhibition offer a trip to the future tomorrow? Prague priorities representing 25 ambitious construction projects that will significantly change the face of Prague in the next 20 years. The exhibition was prepared by the capital city of Prague and IPR Prague. It starts on 23rd September and will last until 20th December 2020 in the premises of the Prague Center for Architecture and Urban Planning (CAMP) and on Mariánské náměstí, where the projects are presented in the form of a panel exhibition.

Each category is represented by 5 specific projects.
It has been a trying time across all industries and all kinds of interpersonal relationships. Community managers and tenants are considered in-person communities, and as such, are particularly affected by the onslaught of this uncertainty. COVID-19 has urged community managers to think on their feet when it comes to solutions for pressing concerns among their tenants. Clear communication is the cornerstone of maintaining tenant relationships – despite it looking differently from what it once was.
COVID-19 brings uncertainty to many tenants, and with current social distancing measures in place as well as a majority of companies transitioning to working from home arrangements, the requirements of an office space have been severely impacted.
In the last month alone, the vacant office space offered by tenants for sublease has approximately doubled (from 50 to 100,000 m2). This is a unique opportunity, especially for small companies with up to 50 employees, which can now afford prestigious "A" offices commonly intended for larger corporations due to the coronavirus crisis. And under very advantageous conditions, often with a better price or higher flexibility of commitment compared to standard five-year contracts.
Only 18% of the companies surveyed reduced their leased office space and 27% gave up the planned expansion.
The pandemic accelerated the onset of new trends. Flexibility is at the heart.
64% of respondents-companies in the Czech Republic and 75% in the CEE region plan to invest in new technologies to support teleworking.
24% of Czech and 32% of Central European representatives of the surveyed companies expect increased interest in the sustainable construction of buildings.
The developer Penta Real Estate has announced a competition for coworking offices in Prague in the Churchill building. The winner was Studio Perspektiv, which created a so-called boutique co-working space for the discerning. It is called Base and is the first branch of the planned network.
The Agency for Entrepreneurship and Innovation, the intermediate body of the Operational Program Enterprise and Innovation for Competitiveness, has started receiving applications for subsidies under the "Calls VII of the Potential Support Program".
The aim of the call is to support the establishment and increase of the number of companies with infrastructure for their own research, development, and innovation. It is now possible to obtain up to 50 million CZK for one project. The call was announced on 28th August 2020 by the Ministry of Industry and Trade, which is the managing authority of the OP EIC. The API will accept applications until 23 November 2020. This is the last call of the Potential program in the OP EIC, a total of 1.1 billion crowns has been prepared for applicants.
The transition to safer offices does not have to be a leap and the cost of large investments. Even small adjustments and hygiene measures can significantly reduce the risk of the virus spreading.
