My big bet is that the 3 concrete benefits of physical proximity that are hard to replicate in virtual environments * body language, nonverbal communication, whispering / spatial audio, passing notes, and other "advanced" communication techniques not easily achieved in enterprise chat and conference software today * the ability to immediately multiplex / "break out" / traverse conversations and events / kibbutz / hang out at the water cooler * to physically share collaborative or immersive objects like large whiteboards, prototypes, machinery, exhibits, etc. Will all be solved digitally in the next 2 years and offices will seem even less appealing and companies will just redirect rent expenditures towards lunch vouchers, team outings, and awards ceremonies.
