Elon Musk has said recently that Tesla is open to "voluntary and
friendly" mergers. He's expressed that if a company says "hey,
we think it would be a good idea to merge with Tesla,' we'd
certainly have that conversation." Though nothing is immediately
in the works, Reuters' Chris Thompson has pointed to Daimler AG
as one of the best options.
I'm looking for thought leaders in the transportation space to
join a quick remote video conversation for our publications
breaking down...
a) whether the idea of a Tesla merger is one the industry should
be treating as likely and why b) whether or not Daimler would be
a good fit to position Tesla for more serious competition in the
market c) whether Tesla has truly earned this level of attention
& valuation when their global market share is miniscule

Hi,
Dropbox is continuing to build out their (as yet unpublished)
site dedicated to the world of remote working, distributed
teams, and the general work-from-home experience. Hello again if
we were in contact before!
The focus of this new set of questions is - how is the workforce
going to change in 2021, and what trends will affect it?
We want your predictions on tech, strategy, industry
pivots/disruptions, what decisions are likely to be made, what
software will be implemented, how will work attitudes change,
company cultures, purchasing decisions, investments - and what
this means for the workforce as a whole (as well as for the
future of remote work).
We're hopefully going live in the next few weeks, and responses
collected from you will frame the stats findings of the research
on our pages. So answers will most likely be used as
overlay/box-out quotes etc. on a live page on the Dropbox
website. (short and pithy, with image/name/position/company of
source.)
So...along with answers, please provide name, position,
headshot, and company URL info for any sources so we can get you
featured. By providing this information, you're agreeing for the
above to be published on the Dropbox site.
We'll keep a list of everyone that is featured in the final
website edit and email you all when it's live.
Many thanks, and look forward to hearing from you ^_^
Thanks, Nick

Query:
I am seeking to write an article which clarifies what the gross
rent multiplier is for new real estate investors. The idea is
to provide rental property owners with an idea of how they may
use the gross rent multiplier to evaluate potential cash flow.
The article will help new investors learn the pros and cons of
the gross rent multiplier, and when it should (and shouldn't) be
implemented. I am looking for an expert's opinion on a number of
topics: When will investors want to use the gross rent
multiplier? What are the downsides of using the gross rent
multiplier? What are the benefits of using the gross rent
multiplier? When should rental property owners avoid using the
GRM? Are there better ways to evaluate a rental property?
Requirements:
Looking for responses from investors or anyone with experience
on the subject of rental property investing. Any advice you
have on the topic would be greatly appreciated.

I am writing an article on how the move to remote work has been

Pre-COVID, a lot of people clung to attendance as a way of

To be featured, please respond with:

reorient their thinking around work. (E.g. how to focus on
output and not on the hours.) 3) Will this mark the end of
