| As the world battles an invisible enemy in COVID-19, we are all coming to a common realisation that things will never be the same again. The virus does not discriminate. The current situation has forced governments, businesses and individuals out of their comfort zones. We are all compelled to adjust, think outside of the box, as well as find new ways to cope and hopefully thrive again. In this live webinar series, we take a look at how COVID-19 is affecting all facets of business and how we can emerge stronger from the perspectives of world-renowned economists to industry insiders.

The road to recovery will be slow and uneven. Around the world, we will see cities and countries take one step forward and two steps back in search of stability. Once the pandemic curve is flattened, the next critical phase is testing in three areas – physical testing, effective contact tracing and reopening the economy. We discuss the next steps on the way forward.

The current global health crisis has paralyzed economies across the world.
