The pandemic among many things has also been a catalyst in hastening work from anywhere for the knowledge-based economy and organisations that did not have remote working on their agenda.

This leads to employees and organisations grappling with challenges not restricted to infrastructure. In this virtual rendezvous, stalwarts across industries come together to discuss what drives efficiency in the age of distributed networks.
