Future of Remote Work

How do we collaborate seamlessly across time zones and locations? How do we engineer serendipity given there’s no more water cooler? How can we combine synchronous and asynchronous working practices to create a best of breed? The list is endless.

Digital identity in digital worlds

Metaverses built around gaming, digital items and allowing people to express themselves online are already huge businesses and only going to get bigger. The need for digital track and trace has also highlighted the importance of digital identity management that allows for both privacy and security around personal details.

Next Gen Audio

Apple Airpods are the 2nd fastest-selling new Apple product of all time. Combined with the sky-rocketing popularity of podcasts, audio is taking the place of screens in major parts of our lives. How can ideas seen in other places online be brought into audio? What does product discovery look like in audio? What happens when people interact constantly with voice assistants?
