APAC Guide 2023 Highlights

Most, if not all, companies have adopted some form of hybrid working model, often in response to employee expectations of increased workplace flexibility. Similarly, sustainability targets are increasingly becoming the norm, as are more visible practices to foster and promote diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&I). The role of technology has never been more important – both as an enabler of change and as a means of measuring the impacts of change.

Together, these factors mean that the fitting out of office space goes beyond how the space looks, to include how the space contributes to a company’s financial, social, and sustainability goals whilst also reflecting corporate brand and culture.

For 32 key gateway cities across 12 markets in APAC, the Guide covers:

• 4 key considerations for a best-in-class office fit out: workplace strategy & change management, sustainability, procurement, and technology
• Cost estimates of the different styles of fit out to cater to the post-pandemic workforce
• “All-in” comprehensive fit out cost breakdowns that includes furniture, mechanical and electrical works, construction works, IT, audio visual and miscellaneous costs
• Average costs to retrofit and reinstate office spaces

The growth of major life sciences companies has started to normalise after a period of significant growth during the height of the pandemic. Weaker revenue growth and capital funding in the face of slowing global economies is shaping a new competitive landscape for the life sciences sector and the need for companies to rethink their real estate strategy.

This report explores the latest life sciences real estate trends and their impact on real estate strategy. It also examines the latest developments in R&D Laboratory and Office portfolios, as well as investment demand.

Key highlights are below:

• Office Portfolios: Most life sciences firms are seeking to keep costs under control and are therefore unwilling to add to their office portfolios. Workplace transformation and efficiency are a major focus.
• R&D Laboratory Portfolios: As of the end of 2022, there was more than 100 million sq. ft. of R&D laboratory space in Asia Pacific. Solid leasing demand is driving the emergence of new life science hubs.
• Life Sciences Real Estate Investment: Investment demand remains upbeat, with US$18 billion of funds raised for Asia Pacific life sciences real estate in the past five years. However, a shortage of assets for sale meant just US$717 million of direct investment was recorded in 2022.

The office sector has shifted and while asset owners need to adjust so too do flexible workspace operators, otherwise flexible workspace operators, who were once seen as disruptors to the office market, will themselves be disrupted.

Shifting occupier profiles are leading to white space opportunities. We have seen an uptick in demand for enterprise solutions and turnkey offices. We believe this presents an opportunity for a managed suite product, which is a product yet to become mainstream in many Asia Pacific markets. The question is: who is best placed to deliver this?

Meanwhile, asset owners are aiming to placemake with holistic, integrated, hospitality-led amenity stacks to elevate the occupier experience. Is this an opportunity for a new type of operator?

This is an incredibly exciting time, with occupier trends driving innovation in how the market delivers the workplace of the future. This may be the dawn of Office 2.0; at the very least, it is the dawn of Flex 2.0.
