Private RE Leaders Dinner: NYC x Dubai: A Global Perspective

coDesign will host an intimate, invitation-only dinner on Tuesday, May 12th in New York, bringing together a curated group of workplace and real estate leaders for a private roundtable discussion.

This dinner is part of coDesign’s ongoing Private Dinner Series, previously held in New York, Miami, Los Angeles, and San Francisco, designed to foster candid, off-the-record conversations among peers navigating the evolving demands of the modern workplace.

For this edition, we are bringing in a global perspective with Kathryn Athreya, Managing Director and Shareholder at Roar, joining from Dubai. Kathryn plays a key role in shaping workplace strategy and expansion across the Middle East—offering a lens from one of the fastest-evolving regions for workplace experience and design.

The evening will center around:

• contrasting global approaches to workplace strategy and utilization

• redefining flexibility, culture, and in-office engagement
