On Monday March 23rd, more than 220 people participated in an online webinar on how to adapt your business to the current COVID-19 crisis. Experts and entrepreneurs shared their best practices on the subject. Learn from them and see how you can weather the storm for your business.

Don't miss our next event on COVID-19 which will take place on Tuesday, March 31st from 8:30 to 10:30. Register here now.

COVID-19 has changed the way we do business and affects Swiss startups on a daily basis. Nobody knows when this crisis will end nor has a solution on how to deal with this situation. 

Venturelab, Innovaud, the Canton of Vaud and 220 entrepreneurs from the region participated on Monday in a first webinar to share their experience and tips on how to cope with this black swan. We were amazed to see the solidarity in the Swiss startup ecosystem and thank everybody for your involvement. Thumbs up to you!



Main points addressed were about the new measures supporting the companies such as the short time work, allocation for independents or loan guarantees. 

Additionally, Venturelab shared a proposal to adapt the Federal Council loan guarantee mechanism to make sure the early stage startups are not left out in this difficult period. Read it here and don't hesitate to send feedback to Stefan Steiner
