ABOUT THIS REPORT

A growing cross-generational tribe of educated, influential and affluent professionals are striving to

lead a nomadic life. For them, concepts like borders, time-zones and office-spaces can be ignored in lieu of a connected ecosystem of tools and services that help them live, work and play in a

way that may seem extreme to many of us today, but will become the norm for a much larger group of professionals in the next few years.
