The COVID-19 outbreak is causing extreme disruption economically across the world. Small businesses, start-ups, and entrepreneurs are directly affected by this outbreak and the related preventive measures imposed by governments worldwide.

How has the COVID-19 outbreak impacted businesses worldwide? What are the actions taken to limit the impact of an economic crisis and to counter the threat of recession? Are these sufficient for businesses, start-ups, and entrepreneurs? What do they expect from their lawyers right now? To find out the answer to these questions, join us for a 45-minute webinar with the G20 Young Entrepreneurs’ Alliance.

Entrepreneurs from Italy, Germany, China, India and Canada will share examples of policy and business responses to COVID-19 in their countries, while discussing the most pressing challenges faced by businesses worldwide. The discussion will be moderated by Xavier Costa, AIJA Immediate Past President.

Join us on Wednesday, 22 April, from 13:30 to 14:15 CET.
