Most governments treat migration as a problem to manage. But what if it’s actually a strategy for prosperity—a latent superpower we haven’t yet learned to wield?

In this talk transcript at the United Nations, I map a future of migration told through the narrative of work. It’s a story of remote jobs, pop-up villages, and global talent flows—of economic reinvention from the ground up.

Inside: the island that rebranded itself through digital nomads, the Japanese town reversing rural decline, the American city that bought itself a brain gain—and my work designing a global standard for digital nomad visas.

This is the story of how the world is already changing.

And how policy hasn’t caught up yet.
