executives from LaSalle Investment Management, Brookfield Asset Management, Benoy and Yardi speaking at an industry forum today.<\/p>\n<p>Although utilisation rates for offices in Asia Pacific are much higher than in other parts of the world, hybrid working is still widespread in the region and companies are using premium offices as tools to bring employees back to the office, George Goh, head
