David speaks with Sondre Rasch, Co-founder and CEO of SafetyWing, a global social safety net for remote workers and companies.
A natural entrepreneur, Sondre started selling server space in his early teens whilst playing MMORPGs. While most kids were focused on high school, at 14 he was already planning to build a Silicon Valley company, something he'd eventually do twice as a Y Combinator founder with Superside and later SafetyWing.
Sondre used his own problems as a digital nomad to create solutions that now help thousands of people who want the freedom to work from anywhere.
They talked about:
🏙️ Why cities are now competing for nomads
🌐 The Rise of Internet Countries
🌱 How Reddit Keeps Subcultures Alive
🚀 How work is becoming borderless, not just remote
🛡️ Building safety nets for nomads (SafetyWing)
