Reinventing Global Mobility Through Tech: Solutions for a Post-Pandemic World

After a year of crisis, disruption, and novel challenges, the mobility industry has begun a technology revolution to address the evolving needs of its global workforce. What might have been a “wish list” or distant plan before the pandemic is now more necessary than ever, as global mobility professionals juggle a growing mobile workforce, new compliance challenges, wider duties and functions, and ever-present cost pressures. In this session, experts in mobility, immigration, and tax will discuss the elevated role of global mobility shaped by the pandemic, and technology advancements positioned to support the industry’s multifaceted growth and emerging challenges.  Drawing upon their own experiences, panelists will share lessons in tech from the pandemic as well as key innovation strategies for the future.
