A proposal from the creator of "a company without an office": recommending a work style that allows you to live wherever you want

The staff at Lincoln Loop, a company that doesn't have any office, are free to choose wherever they want to work, in addition to wherever they want to live. No two of them live in the same place: France, Sweden, Portugal, and New Zealand, among others. The founder has tried to prove that in spite of differences in location, the staff can still come together as a company. He says that the work style of the future will "allow you to live where you want" before any other considerations.
