The coronavirus pandemic will have lasting effects on the global economy. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) reported the worst global economic decline since the Great Depression, projecting a loss of $ 9 trillion in world GDP in the next two years.

Despite the reality of a looming global recession, innovation has not faltered. But startups are now suddenly forced to acclimatize to a very different world and adapt their growth strategies accordingly, raising the question: How do you raise capital in a crisis?

Introducing the Data Market Services Inspiration Series, a new podcast produced and hosted by Tech.eu for Support startups in the current crisis with advice and experienced knowledge.

This podcast is produced in collaboration with the Data Market Services Accelerator, an initiative supported by the European Commission that involves TNW and nine other partners from across Europe.
