Is Remote Work and Play an Industry?

By TIFCA News

Remote Work and Play Industry

The International Future Computing Summit is gathering the Remote Work and Play industry and the CORA ecosystem on December 6, 2022.  The summit will focus on the industry’s future as well as its challenges and solutions for meeting the needs of employers, team leaders, and users wishing to engage and support the Remote Work and Play lifestyle.

After TIFCA sent out a press release for the summit, there was some debate about whether or not Remote Work and Play qualifies as an industry, and why it’s important for this space to be seen AS an industry.  Neil Schneider, Executive Director of TIFCA, explores answers to this question on Linkedin, and why he thinks it’s important for the market to be seen and behave as an industry.
