For many years, DEGW has worked within the public sector, assisting government agencies at all levels - central, regional, and local - to maximise the benefits and possibilities around the relationships among space, people, processes, and practices. In the United Kingdom and the United States particularly, the government has become an important innovator in workspace, recognising that real estate can positively affect the delivery of public service.

DEGW also hosts Government Forum, a series of events where representatives of government departments regularly meet for topical discussion and case study visits. We anticipate that this series, currently occurring only in the UK , will become a global series in the next year.
