What is Mobopreneur?
We can guess what everything-preneur means: Everything related to entrepreneurs and entrepreneurship; but how about mobo? Well, mobo is another term (or a shorthand) of mobile bohemian.
“A mobile bohemian is a person who has integrated mobile technology, primarily smartphones, into their daily lifestyle as a means of expanding their social network, gaining immediate access to information, staying connected, and capturing details of their daily lives in real-time.” – Wikipedia
Combining both words – mobo and entrepreneur – into mobopreneur, we are referring to entrepreneur who runs his/her business and/or lives as a mobo (or a digital nomad, if you will…)
Mobo and BYOD
In term of business, Mobo is a trend you shouldn’t overlook. Have you ever heard about BYOD (bring your own device)? This trend is prominent, especially in 2012. BYOD describes a trend of employees who are empowered by the fact that they are allowed to bring their own mobile devices for work purposes. According to a survey, companies offering such perks have better ability to retain great talents and have a group of happy and productive employees.
Mobo and the cloud
The ever-presence of cloud computing services and solutions today allows mobile bohemians to live their life in the cloud: Updating social media using their smartphones; making a video call using their tablets; storing their photos, music and videos in cloud storage; mobos thrive in the cloud.
Mobile lifestyle is for today’s entrepreneurs
With the emerging trends above, we want to help budding entrepreneurs who are interested in the mobo lifestyle. The increased productivity, better work-life balance, and direct access to geoarbitrage… there is no better time to go mobile than today.
So, let’s embark on a brand new entrepreneurial journey and do share with us your stories (as we will share ours, too!)
Good luck and safe journey.
