To the metaverse we go

One of the largest tech agencies in Baltimore says it's moving the location of its official headquarters to the metaverse.

 

If your company moved to the metaverse — that's totally remote interaction with your colleagues — would you welcome the change? Or do you prefer to work in a coworking space? Or is a dedicated office and HQ the only way to go?
