Why You Need an Online Portfolio
The Digital Age Waits for No One
Welcome to the digital age. You’re reading this story on Medium, making you one of the lucky few to experience the dawn of this new era first hand.
For the first time in history, there are companies spanning the globe that exist entirely online.
These are companies that work in a digital workspace, selling a digital product, on a digital platform, in exchange for (wait for it) digital money.
This is in stark contrast to the rest of human history, a history forged entirely on the back of face-to-face encounters. For over 9000 generations, work or play, it’s all taken place exclusively in the physical world. The idea of a ‘digital’ world was practically inconceivable.
Yet here we are in 2022, very much accustomed to the fact that we live in two worlds simultaneously.
Our technology has grown beyond simple machinery, it’s now the beating heart of an ecosystem that is reshaping the very foundations of our own existence — and your portfolio is your personal gateway to this digital world. Let’s explore why.
