Milan, Italy – September 18, 2024 – As Milan Fashion Week kicks off, Getty Images Italy, a global leader in visual content creation, highlights the pivotal role of WeWork’s flexible office spaces in supporting its operations during one of the busiest events of the year. Based in WeWork Via Giuseppe Mazzini 9 in Milan, Getty Images relies on adaptable, high-performance workspaces, tailored to meet the fast-paced demands of fashion photography.
“Milan Fashion Week is one of our most demanding times, and WeWork’s dynamic spaces give us the agility we need to keep pace,” says Gaia Danieli, Commercial Partnership Director at Getty Images Italy. “From access to additional meeting rooms to seamless internet connection for rapid photo uploads, WeWork ensures we can focus on delivering top-quality content without being held back by logistical concerns.”
Tailored to a Flexible Work Model and High-Demand Workflows
Getty Images operates with a hybrid work model that combines in-office attendance, remote work and flexible arrangements. WeWork’s versatile solutions are key to this adaptability, providing the team with an environment that easily supports shifts in working modes. “WeWork accommodates all our needs, whether for employees who thrive in a traditional office setting or those who prefer working remotely,” Danieli notes.
This flexibility proves especially valuable during high-stakes events, like Milano Fashion Week and Design Week. The ability to scale space and book additional conference rooms on-demand helps Getty Images manage workflows and cover events with the precision required for a global audience.
Additionally, WeWork workspace’s robust infrastructure has been essential for Getty Images, enabling the company to customize its office spaces to meet both creative and technical needs. Fast and reliable internet for real-time uploads and content distribution is non-negotiable. “A strong internet connection is vital for us, and WeWork ensures we can operate smoothly, even when we’re handling high volumes of content,” says Danieli.
A Collaborative and Wellness-Focused Creative Hub
The vibrant, creative and tech-driven community at WeWork Via Mazzini 9 is another key benefit for Getty Images, offering more than just office space. “Being surrounded by other innovative and creative companies stimulates our team and fosters unique opportunities for collaboration, sometimes leading to fresh approaches,” Danieli adds. “We often exchange insights and ideas, which is invaluable in fast-paced industries like ours, where innovation and quick thinking are paramount.”
Regular networking events hosted by WeWork further enhance this collaborative culture, offering Getty Images ongoing opportunities to forge new connections and stay ahead in an ever-evolving industry.
As the company continues to grow, WeWork’s flexibility remains integral to its long-term strategy. “We see wellness as an integral part of our work culture and looking to the future, we envision incorporating wellness features like a gym or fitness activities into our workspace,” Danieli shares. “The flexibility that WeWork offers fits perfectly with our long-term goals for growth and fostering a healthy, balanced lifestyle for our team.”
