There is no country that hasn’t been affected by the coronavirus. A major topic of concern that will affect not only individual entrepreneurs, but the future health of nearly every industry, is how startups can weather the storm.
Naturally, attention has turned from private to public resources: what role should government agencies take in keeping the startup ecosystem alive?
Introducing the second episode of Data Market Services Inspiration Series, a new podcast produced and hosted by Tech.eu to support startups in the current crisis with advice and experienced insight. This episode will compare and contrast the policies of France, the Netherlands, Latvia, and the greater EU.
This podcast is produced in collaboration with Data Market Services Accelerator, a European Commission-backed initiative involving TNW and nine other partners from across Europe. For 6 months, the DMS Accelerator offers training in business growth, legal and IP matters, GDPR, and data science, as well as investor matchmaking to 50 European data-driven startups.
