- Places & Travel
How are companies and entire cities changing to accommodate the rise of remote work? On this episode, we take a closer look at how buildings are combining work, play and stay, with a new breed of hybrid spaces embraced by remote workers and digital nomads alike. We speak to Finland-based professor of Knowledge Management Kirsimarja Blomqvist to hear what makes for the ideal remote-working environment. We head to Croatia where Mario Mrksa has turned a summertime resort into an off-season ‘digital nomad valley’, and to the Netherlands, where Hans Meyer, CEO of Zoku hotels, tells us how the hotels offer a place to relax, work, and connect with other remote workers.
Plus: Toposophy’s takeaways on the importance to see hybrid spaces as more than just places to work and sleep, and how our major report for the City Destinations Alliance “Understanding the World of the Digital Nomad” - which you can find at Toposphy.com - shows how cities and regional authorities can benefit from the trend by understanding the people behind it.
