Tuncay Cil, Chief Strategy Officer speaks with Wi-Fi NOW's Claus Hetting about what ISPs are looking for in their vendors, the changing nature of the market, and what 2021 holds in store.

Is the new work-from-home trend helping is the lack of physical presence hindering SMB and enterprise companies? With this new normal, we see a multi-trillion dollar opportunity for SMBs and enterprise and a definite need for a more modern, distributed, and highly productive workforce.

Reducing the importance of a centralized location makes it easier for companies and organizations to re-allocate operational budgets to other areas.

Once we stop thinking of location as a qualifier for employment, it makes it a lot easier to hire quality talent from a significantly larger pool. It even saves money. But it all starts with a shift to remote work.

One 2019 study shows that remote employees work an average of 1.4 days more than their office counterparts. Another shows a dramatic reduction in absenteeism.
