It took a global pandemic to accelerate remote working to where the world is today; nobody could have foreseen the profound impact that COVID-19 would have. For Rockstart, a global VC/Accelerator, the lockdown changed the company’s strategy to move to a remote-first company. With the rapid shift of society adapting to ‘digital as the new normal’, Rockstart believes the tools and mindset are now in place to embrace virtual connectivity for the long term. From this summer onwards, the company will implement a flexible and digital work style.
