TechHub

It looks like marketing guru Seth Godin is having the same thoughts as we are at TechHub about the future of working.

The traditional office is often not needed. Sure we sometimes need a place to meet, to collaborate, but does this need to be the same place, every day? Seth thinks not, and we agree.

Those of us who need only a laptop and an internet connection don't really need to be around our bosses or people from the same company all the time, in fact, some people never see their co-workers in person and get along just fine.

In fact, having like-minded people around you who are working on other things, in different companies can be thought-provoking and incredibly useful in terms of new perspectives and ideas.

Seth says:

"2. If you do work with a keyboard and a mouse, the items you need to work on are on your laptop, not in the office.
...
5. You can get energy from people other than those in the same company.
...
7. So go someplace. But it doesn't have to be to your office."

So where does TechHub come in? Crucially he says: 

"The gain in speed, productivity and happiness is massive. What's missing is #7... someplace to go. Once someone figures that part out, the office is dead."

I think we've figured it out...
