Cloud technologies present workers in Britain with flexible working opportunities, according to Ian Osborne, project director at Intellect.
Workers have had "a realisation" with respect to the cloud, he said.
"The rail strikes and snow [problems] over the year have given people the realisation that actually you can do a lot of what you do in the office at home, without the hassle of getting there and back," he said.
