An open forum with the experts

The panel is focused on discussing the global impacts of digital nomadism and remote work, with a particular emphasis on Thailand. It aims to bring together perspectives from government, industry, and academia to explore how digital nomadism is influencing policies, economic trends, and the local workforce in Thailand. Key discussion points include the current mindset around digital nomad visas and the benefits and challenges for stakeholders, nation-states such as Thailand, organisations, and what research needs are.

The panel is part of the CNOW (International Workshop on the Changing Nature of Work) within the ICIS 2024 conference, held in Bangkok at the Marriott Marquis – presented by my research group (Digital Futures Research Group, DFRG), CNOW, and AIS Thailand Chapter.
