Using people's needs and ideas as a medium, working conditions have changed significantly throughout history. A key example of this is how the Internet decreased our need for physical closeness to our place of employment. In fact, many people now work remotely while traveling across countries.

Digital nomads are individuals living location-independent lifestyles; they usually hold jobs that allow remote work, and some earn a passive income on the Internet. Such people are usually educated, curious about learning new cultures, and search for new worldwide experiences. Consequently, cities are excellent destinations for attracting a new generation of people. In this way, digital nomads may contribute to the local economy while earning their income from elsewhere.

Tomorrow's innovative hubs will be developed around the Internet and remote economy. Furthermore, cities hosting a community comprising digital nomads will attract more talented people. As co-working spaces increase in popularity, collaborations between local entrepreneurs and international talent will become more common. As a result of this change, young people may be inclined to develop their skills to become a part of new communities.

Co-working and co-living spaces in rural areas could be a great option for remote workers and digital nomads, especially those who want to escape the city center chaos. This would, in turn, allow alternative tourism destinations to compete with main tourism hubs.

An ecosystem that encourages a connected and mobile lifestyle is crucial to supporting local businesses such as restaurants, car rental companies, real estate, culture, and entertainment industries. This would further assist cities in tolerating seasonal tourism reduction and supporting the tourism market's growth. The new generation of people is likely to travel at a slower pace, stay in each destination for longer, cooperate more, and share different experiences while contributing immensely to the places they visit.

Today, the private sector provides most of the investment needed to develop new products and services. Regardless of this, municipalities and their policies play a significant role in creating an investment-friendly environment. Therefore, the best places to promote a digital nomad community are where local stakeholders agree a connected lifestyle is important.
