1) Founders Talk

Jeremy Freedman, CEO & Founder of Global Nomadic will give a 15-minute talk followed by Q&A on how he founded the company whilst travelling around the world, growing the company from beaches in Bali to Jungles in Costa Rica. By joining the fledgling digital-nomad community, he became an entrepreneur on the road.
