[Asia Economy Reporter Moon Chaeseok] Siemens Korea, the Korean branch of the global electric and electronics company Siemens, announced on the 2nd that it has opened the era of smart offices by relocating its headquarters office to Gwanghwamun, Jongno-gu, Seoul.


Siemens Korea headquarters and Siemens Mobility Korea started working at the new building from that day. The new office was flexibly designed according to the 'Smart Work Guidelines,' which maintain a mobile (remote) work system 2 to 3 times a week even in the post-COVID-19 era.


The most notable feature is the introduction of a flexible seating system. Employees can reserve their desired seats and meeting rooms using a dedicated mobile application.


More than 30 multi-purpose convertible meeting rooms, including video conference rooms, a health care room, and a caf? lounge, were prepared. To enhance communication and collaboration between departments, the 9th and 10th floors are connected by a central staircase, allowing free movement without using the elevator.



Jung Hajung, CEO of Siemens Korea, said, "Through this office relocation, we expect to improve the working environment and work efficiency, and we aim to turn it into a new growth opportunity by providing better services to our customers." He added, "We will continue to do our best for the growth of our customers and the development of the Korean economy."
