Joey Langerbrunner, CEO and Founder of Nomad Layer, is solving once and for all the residency issue for Digital Nomads. He built the world's first remote tax residency program inside Prospera, a special economic zone in Honduras, where you pay a flat $5,000/year in tax, get a real residency certificate, a company, and a bank account. All without leaving your couch.
Maciej Cepnik had the chance to interview him and ask him the hard questions and technical details about his services and questioned him about the future of Prospera.
