Big parts of that place called The Built Environment are equipped with electrical wall sockets.

Today’s invention is a portable laptop stand which consists of two electrical plugs, each of which is attached to a carbon fibre strut. The struts are entwined and attached at the other ends to a small plate which allows eg a laptop to rest securely on it.

One of the struts contains an electric cable which allows the laptop to be both supported mechanically (via the sockets) and provided with power in rooms which would otherwise be inhospitable work/entertainment environments without much spare floor space (eg hospital corridors).
