SUPERTILT: the podcast

Ep 8 - Why stay in NYC during COVID times + the Tech Exodus


Listen Later

In this week's episode, we question what is leading to the surges or plummets in global property markets and how that's being impacted by the rising tide of remote-forward, nature-seeking, lifestyle-conscious tech workers/founders. We dive into the nuances around the example of San Francisco, and the "tech exodus" (to hotspots like Austin, Miami and Tulum etc) that's radically changing the game for the tech industry. This leads us to some cool discoveries about "creator towns" and what urban innovation is on the horizon.

We drop in with tech founder, angel investor + futurist Sydney Lai, live from her Brooklyn apartment. We get her insightful spin on NYC's real USP, that keeps those tied there, despite all the COVID grittiness going down. We discuss the topic of personal wellbeing amidst these testing times, and the coping strategies she's developed throughout her NYC x COVID journey. Hint: KPIs and solid metrics are a core part of the mindfulness game plan. As is the connection to nature. #gobuysomepotplants y'all.
Plus, bonus relevancy points to Sydney for the pretty avante-garde #dogecoin favicon on her website.

Produced for you, with love, in #Aotearoa
