Through our research, we are actively shaping the working environments of the future. We welcome partnerships with universities and associations.

Transfer partner of ISF München – Munich Institute for Social Science Research
Everyone's talking about open-space offices, but how can we make sure that these types of offices have a positive impact and perception? This is the question at the heart of the "PRÄGEWELT = prevention-oriented design of new working environments" project by the Institute for Social Science Research. As a partner of the Institute, CSMM is supporting the target-group-oriented transfer of the issues raised by the project and the project findings.

Consultant in the flexible.office.network
The flexible.office.network (f.o.n.) was created in order to grasp the rapid developments and complex contexts in the working environment of the office more effectively. The Institute for Work Research and Organizational Consultancy (iafob) in Germany leads this network, which has become the most significant platform for sharing knowledge and experiences in the German-speaking region. CSMM Managing Director Sven Bietau is a member of the f.o.n. group of consultants.
