We are thrilled to announce the official opening of our new centre in the heart of downtown Toronto at 19 Duncan Street! Our new centre is purpose-built for the future of work. It was designed with sustainability in mind and a careful focus on how people, their environment, and technology intersect. Guided by the three principles of the Thomson Reuters hybrid work strategy – trust, connection, and flexibility – the new centre offers more dedicated space to foster collaboration. Features of the centre include project team rooms, quiet rooms, wellness rooms, new food and beverage offerings, a three-season outdoor meeting space, and a fitness facility in the adjoining residential tower. We congratulate our entire team on this momentous occasion and look forward to witnessing incredible achievements emerge from this space. Stay tuned for more photos and videos from our opening celebrations.
Have you ever wondered what it's like to work from anywhere? Work from Anywhere is a flexible work arrangement, and a part of our Flex My Way benefits, that allows teammates to work in a different location for up to eight weeks per year, with up to four of those weeks in another country. Over the past year, our teammates have worked in some remarkable places. Check out our latest Inside Thomson Reuters blog to see where!

At Thomson Reuters, we know that continuous learning and skill development are key to staying at the forefront of innovation which is why we are excited to share that today is our first enterprise-wide Global Learning Day! This represents a day where we dedicate time, resources, and experiences for our colleagues to grow and develop their careers together. Our focus for this first event is on artificial intelligence and machine learning, a topic that is so essential to Thomson Reuters informing the way forward. Throughout the day, we have a fantastic lineup of both live (in-person and virtual) as well as pre-recorded sessions that will cover everything from AI 101, a showcase of how we have integrated artificial intelligence and machine learning in our products, AI in our markets, and AI in our individual jobs. We are looking forward to hearing from our teammates' experience with AI. Stay tuned for a recap blog to see how teammates spent the day.

We're excited to see the positive impact our team will continue to make in the coming months!
