BCO heads to Paris in 2027
JVP John Wright will take next year's conference to the French capital
July 03, 2026 
Next year’s BCO Annual Conference will take place in Paris, it has been revealed.
Between 28 and 30 June 2027, the UK’s best and brightest from across the world of workspace will descend on the city of light for what the BCO intends to be its most sustainable conference yet.
With a theme of Urban Alchemy, we’ll be looking beyond what the workspace is as a physical entity and examining what it means for place.
Building on our conversations in Edinburgh at this year’s conference, we’ll be seeking to have even more challenging conversations, debates and workshops that push our sector to continually improve the space and places we design, develop and operate.
While Edinburgh delivered a Festival of Enlightenment, in Paris we’ll be unlocking the power of change and positive transformation.
John Wright, junior vice president and director at Stride Treglown, who will be chair of the 2027 conference, said: “I am excited to be bringing together a conference that will blend inspiring speakers, enlightening tours, challenging workshops and debates, and memorable networking events – creating ‘Urban Alchemy’ and change, and set in one of the world’s great cities.”
Register your interest for the Paris conference here and get early access to our special hotel rates. Further details will follow soon.
