Kevin Van den Bosch - IWG (International Workplace Group)

Journalist by training, business builder by conviction and a curious observer of the modern workplace.
Kevin doesn’t just follow workplace trends. He questions them. With a background in journalism and a career spanning sales, marketing and general management, he brings a uniquely pragmatic lens to how workspaces evolve, flex and function. As President of the Belgian Workspace Association and someone who operates in the thick of the coworking and hybrid work shift at IWG, Kevin’s perspective is grounded, (hopefully) relatable and refreshingly honest. Expect reflections rather than rules and insights that blend workspace design, wellbeing and purpose. All served with a side of pragmatism and a wink.
