After the success of the experimental session, Startup Braga, InvestBraga's innovation hub, will proceed with a set of webinars, which will help entrepreneurs and employees to assess challenges, threats and opportunities brought by the new coronavirus. The sessions will be conducted by experts from various areas and will last until the end of May.

The next online techsession of Startup Braga will have as its motto "Survive and Grow in times of uncertainty" and will serve to help professionals from the PwC Portugal team to understand the impacts of the new coronavirus on the national economy, to map the main support measures of the State for companies and workers, as well as understand the actions they can take immediately in order to minimize the effects of the pandemic.

The session, scheduled for this Wednesday, April 1, will be conducted by Miguel Dias Fernandes, consulting partner; Ana Catarina Vieira, tax senior manager; and Levi França Machado, senior associate, coordinator of Labor Law at CCR Legal, the consultant. The guests will also highlight the opportunities created by COVID19.

For Luís Rodrigues, director of Startup Braga, the dynamics established by the webinar held in March justified the reinforcement of the initiative, which now counts on the involvement of other innovation hub partners such as Microsoft, CCA, The Square and Clarke Modet.

"Given the moment we are going through, we believe that these conversations with experts from various areas, who are both partners of Startup Braga and InvestBraga, are fundamental, not only because they decode much of the information and measures that are announced every day, but also because they contribute to the understanding of those who may be the new paths and opportunities", guarantees the responsible.

The online sessions will take place every Wednesday of April and May, from 2:30pm, on Facebook at Startup Braga and will address issues associated with work management and monitoring of objectives, rights and duties of employers and collaborators working remotely, communication and marketing crisis and trade secret.
