The future of living is now
As the world moves beyond the short-term response to crisis-induced remote work, we’ll see even
greater potential that will benefit generations to come. The past two years enabled tens of millions of
people to question conventional notions of work and life. They’re now free to make better choices about
their lives – choices that will benefit small towns, big cities, the underrepresented, and the underserved.
In the coming year and beyond:
Talented people who once had to relocate for a well-paying job will now have a range of opportunities.
Cities will see a resurgence of investment from people who return to create a better place to live.
Businesses will be more agile and better equipped to handle future crises.
Leaders will be able to hire more diverse teams and elevate voices not historically heard.
People will achieve a healthier relationship between work and life.
Work will become increasingly asynchronous, enabling more innovation in mediums.
Culture will be increasingly built outside of work. Top organizations will allow their team to engage with
communities they chose, not their HR department.
Broadband will become a human right and a vital link to economic achievement.
Venture capital will flow into more regions than ever as cradles of innovation emerge far from Silicon
Valley.
Remote-first practices will permeate industries beyond tech like manufacturing and medicine.
Organizations will seek remote work leaders to steward this evolution.
At GitLab, we’re honored to play a part in this transformation as organizations and people globally
embrace remote work and this new way of living.
