A growing activity and optimism for the global economy marked the beginning of 2020. However, as the COVID-19 outbreak has swept the world, the global economy has slammed the brakes. It is already clear that economic effects will be profound. A more uncertain issue however is how long the crisis will last and what long-term effects companies should prepare for.
For several companies with sales and production in France, the impact of the COVID-19 has already been significant. To get a sense of the situation, how Swedish companies are affected, what measures are being taken or considered to mitigate the impact, and how this crisis will impact long-term strategic planning for companies active in France, we would like to invite you to this webinar and look forward to your participation.
