Dan Nugent, Co-Founder of Ambr Eyewear has commented on the study:

“In a post-COVID world, the opportunities for remote working (while abiding by restrictions of course) are going to be vast. We felt that this study was particularly relevant right now, as creatives look towards a more flexible career that allows them to relocate to innovative and exciting cities.

Being able to live and work in a place which reflects someone with a creative mindset can be vital. Whether you are an editor, a writer, a photographer or something else, the tools to not only do your job but to thrive within it, is essential- and that can often include your surroundings, the place you call home and the support you have access to. To push the status quo, the setting can be a huge priority”
