Mobilization Strategy:
LET THEM GO!
(Duration: 1.5 hours)
We have surpassed the notions of flexible work schedules, telecommuting, and work-life balance to adopt those of work-happiness. Who are the digital nomads, those "resident independent" people who exist via experimentation and not by being chained to material property (experience over material)? These trends increasingly affect the general public and make people dream of change. As business leaders, we can no longer ignore this phenomenon and can even benefit from it.

After two years of hard work, Nomad Coliving, the first residence for entrepreneurs in Montreal, funded by Octo D, launches in 2018.
