With distributed expertise and continuous support, we all become a part of our growth in the new strategy period. Our global network of expert colleagues provides in this magazine real-time input from the field, giving your insight to industry changes as– and when they happen. In each article they break down and analyze the market by segments, understand the prevailing dynamics and study the business area operating in these spaces. We think that by sharing experiences in a personal manner, we will all get inspired, and this can help us have the competitive advantage we need for the future. Our intention with the VEFF Magazine has been to highlight content and ideas that are focused around building a stronger and more connected future, even during the challenges around us. I look forward to the day when we can unite and connect as human beings beyond our frustrations of the pandemic, and I celebrate the moments where we do just that. Even so, I continue to be saddened by the recent development in many countries. In Norway, as we start to return to workplaces, schools, live events, and public gatherings — I believe we need to address caution and have respect for regulations long into the future.
Consider Remote Work After the chaos of 2020, we are constantly looking for ways to find business opportunities and win contracts. With the pandemic still going on, more and more businesses are starting to find ways to generate income while staying at home or with limited contact with other people. We in DNV are doing the same, and in the second part of the editorial we have done a study that reflects on the challenges and opportunities of working remotely from home.

One of the best ways to continue making money in the pandemic is to work remotely. Working remotely allows you to generate income from your primary job without risking possible infection from your colleagues. You can still perform your work at the comfort of your home. However, working at home can make you feel lethargic at times because of the temptation to sit around unproductive or lay in bed, so make sure that you have a designated workspace for you to remain productive and focused. Working remotely, can be considered as flex jobs, working from home, working nomads, jobspresso and fiverrs. Location independent work is a popular trend, not just among employees, but also for many companies. This is because it does not only create greater freedom for individuals, but also offers entirely new recruiting possibilities for companies.
