From Connection to Conversation

Clerkenwell Design Week 2025 has officially come to a close, and what an incredible three days it’s been for Vpod Smart Solutions. From the moment we opened the doors to the EM²C showroom at 88 Goswell Road, the space was alive with energy, innovation, and a shared passion for transforming the workplace through smarter, more sustainable design.

Day 1 set the tone with a packed schedule and plenty of meaningful dialogue. We had the pleasure of connecting with passionate professionals across the design and workplace innovation space, engaging in conversations that were not only thought-provoking but forward-looking. The buzz didn’t let up across the three days, and it was clear: this community is ready for change and committed to progress.

Design with Purpose: Meet the Minds Behind the Movement

Our featured panel, Design with Purpose, brought together leaders shaping the future of the workplace through sustainability and smart thinking. 

  • Michelle Carr, Habit Action – Championing conscious design and purpose-driven workspaces

  • Anthony Gray, Planq – Pushing the boundaries of circular production and sustainable materials

  • Charlotte Trudgen, acou.space – Pioneering acoustic innovation with natural wool

  • Trishna Jethwa, Vpod Smart Solutions – Blending technology and sustainability to drive workplace change

These were not just talks—they were open, honest conversations with the designers, makers, and change-makers who are challenging the status quo.

Smart, Circular, and Seamless

At the heart of our presence this year was the launch of the UK’s first circular locker, created by Keynius. But beyond the product, we showcased a broader mission: to create seamless workplace experiences that are as innovative as they are environmentally conscious.

A Big Thank You

To everyone who visited the EM²C showroom, joined a discussion, or stopped by for a chat – thank you. Your insights, questions, and energy made this event so much more than a showcase. We’re leaving Clerkenwell inspired, energised, and ready to push further.

Let’s Keep Talking

Clerkenwell may be over, but the conversation doesn’t have to be. If you’d like to explore a project, find out more about our smart locker technology, or continue discussing sustainable workplace design, we’d love to hear from you. Get in touch or visit us at the EM²C showroom.

Here’s to bold ideas, real connections, and reshaping the future of work – together.
