The American poet Emily Dickinson wrote that “the truth must dazzle gradually, or every man be blind.” When it comes to startups harnessing technology and the future of work, however, there is no time for gradual discovery.

Woody Allen once said that 80% of all success is down to showing up, but for many startups finding the right people – both partners and employees – is an equally important step on the road to success.

Increased digitalisation and the changes to the labour market brought about by the Covid-19 pandemic mean that working from anywhere has not only become possible but also acceptable to an increasing number of people. This is therefore changing the way we work, as well as how we buy, sell and share goods and services.
