Imagine if all of us could work from anywhere, anytime, however, we want to, without any barriers.
We are advocates of flexible work, work from anywhere policies, sharing economy, diversity & gender balance at work.To make sure there is real value in this online conference, we got together a phenomenal panel of speakers. See & judge for yourself.

Experts Can’t Be Wrong
Surround yourself with people who have been there, done that.
Hailley Griffis, Head of Public Relations
Communicating Proactively in a Remote Team
“I don’t just message my CEO with ‘Hey Joel’ and wait for him to respond. When working remotely, it is highly essential to respect the team member’s time and get straight to the point.”
Allan K. Christensen, COO
The Remote First Policy at Doist
“Remote work was a necessity for us because we wanted to hire the best talent. Since we didn’t know the labour market or the local language of the city, our founders decided to use their network to hire people remotely. This concept served us in many ways and we decided to stick to it.”
Barbra Gago, Chief Marketing Officer
Collaborating Through a Virtual Whiteboard
“Whiteboards are an essential part of any team. And for virtual teams, it is more important to have a virtual set up that engages them and keeps them in the loop. So we built Miro. At its core, it creates an intimate virtual whiteboard that helps the team collaborate virtually.”
Tammy Bjelland, Founder & CEO
Why Do You Need to ‘Learn’ How to Work Remotely?
“Remote workers need the same skills that a traditional office worker would require. However, there are some specific areas of remote work skills that need special attention. If you do not learn the skill of remote work, it will instantly reflect on your work and productivity.”
Scott Hanselman, Principal Program Manager
Evaluating Candidates for Remote Roles
“I highly believe in referrals when hiring remotely. Since the candidates come through someone I trust, it builds this transitive web of trust between the candidate and me. But that’s not all. Proof of work is also a great way to evaluate candidates.”
Stella Garber, Product Marketing Lead
Trello’s Remote Work Policy
“We follow a remote-friendly culture at Trello. We do not say remote-first because we want to give our team members a choice. But what we do focus on is engaging every employee in the organization through defined processes and guidelines.”

I was able to tune in to two of the interviews, which I found to be very informative and thought provoking. The format was perfect and I had no difficulties whatsoever.

I really got a lot out of Remote Work Summit! Your speakers covered a wide range of subjects. It was interesting to see all of the drastically different personas of people that have been successful in the field. It gave me a much greater understanding of the potential virtual work.

I have watched 80% interviews and it showed me a completely new perspective of work and living. Looking at all those people and literally, they are true inspiration. So far this summit was the best source of information and big thank you. Hoping it will be more summits like this.
