## Description

"Globalism" made the world smaller. The pandemic accelerated the predominance of remote-first work. Then as countries began opening their borders, people realized they could take their laptop and work from anywhere. Some countries have started to catch on and try to attract global nomads with special visas, but most countries are leaving money on the table as these work-tourists work remotely.

Opolis is building a global public utility infrastructure for employment that benefits both nomads and the jurisdictions they temporarily call "home." By facilitating payroll and tax withholding, Opolis can ensure the correct amount of tax is withheld and directed to the appropriate state, local, and federal tax jurisdictions. This optimization of tax payments can lower the barrier to obtaining digital nomad visas, and should lead to a proliferation thereof.

The future of work is borderless and permissionless. This panel will gather experts to discuss taxes, payroll, remittances, visas, travel and what a Web3-powered future could look like, as well as what steps could be taken to buidl a world in which people and money can flow freely.

Panel: 
Joshua Lapidus, Opolis / SporkDAO 
Yev Muchnik, Launch Legal 
Ivan Fartunov, Aragon
Cameron Browne, Darien Advisers
