The Covid-19 global pandemic has highlighted areas where governments have taken similar and coordinated actions to address public health issues. There is, however, an increasing economic response to the issues being caused by Covid with regards to business activity, wages, economic support etc. 

This response is similar if not larger in scale that the response to the 2009 financial crisis and shows how serious this current crisis is and its potential effects on the world. This webinar explores what different countries have done, both in response to the spread of the virus and also the subsequent economic response and looks at the lessons to be learned for future crises and for how we operate as societies going forward.

We have assembled an excellent line-up of expert speakers to discuss these issues, examine the global effect of government interventions and work out what this all means for global construction and infrastructure businesses. By sharing experiences from across the world, this webinar will offer help and guidance to firms facing the challenge of dealing with the current crisis.
