In our interlinked economy, countries are no more relevant units of analysis. Multinational companies no longer think in terms nation states. Other units of analysis like -language, age, climate, lifestyle are much more relevant.

Why should I have a subsidiary in Finland and one in Sweden? Why should I have a Nordic Office at all, instead of having a sales agent for -truck drivers- or for -gardeners- wherever they may be?

At the cash register, we’re all brother in arms.
