I think that in my country, the biggest factors that have affected businesses are limited technology and economic situation. We are still stuck with the pen and paper method of running businesses since we have not been exposed to technological trends. That's why it would take a really long time before remote work would gain prominence in my country.

On economic conditions, inflation has been on rampage recently hitting double figures. That makes it very difficult for any business to engage in production at the optimum level.
