Love Where You Work

During the pandemic, we’ve heard of more people  –moving to the state – temporarily at least — maybe longer. Sometimes bringing their jobs with them – virtually – so to speak.

Around the country, hundreds of employers have told tens of thousands of employees not to come to the office – for a long time – and maybe forever. Tech industry leaders Facebook, Google, Amazon and many other see more telework in the future. And it’s not just tech, non-profits, medicine, artists, writers and non-profits, communicators and small businesses are all finding much more that can be done from a “home” office. Some of those jobs could be done from anywhere, so why not Vermont?

In a partnership with the Vermont Future’s Project and the Office of Engagement at UVM we ask those questions.
