COVID means more people are working from home. Faster #broadband and working from home mean firms can save on office space. See our article @Tim_DeStefano @RAKneller @JonathanTimmis live-streamed at https://t.co/5wSb5IyN3T #NBERSI2020. https://t.co/17UYqhuxO5

How has #broadband impacted #firms in the long-run? They can now squeeze more output from less space. See our article with @Tim_DeStefano @RAKneller @JonathanTimmis that will be presented today at #NBERSI2020: https://t.co/17UYqhcWWx

Is #cloud different to earlier ICTs that benefited big business? Cloud computing leads to #growth mainly of young firms. See our @voxeu article with @Tim_DeStefano @RAKneller @JonathanTimmis https://t.co/KSDYiIdZD5

[Timothy DeStefano @Tim_DeStefano]

#COVID-19 has accelerated the shift to telework & cloud computing, but what is the impact of #cloud on firms? Cloud allows firms to decentralize away from their HQ. See our @voxeu article with @Tim_DeStefano @RAKneller @JonathanTimmis https://t.co/KSDYiIdZD5
