How does the coronavirus pandemic affect your business finances?

Did you have to make difficult choices regarding human resources, and what are the lessons learned?

Michael Elyav: Yes, given the fact some projects scaled down, it was important to be flexible by restructuring teams and allocating resources accordingly, working in an agile environment ease these processes.

How did your customer relationship management evolve? Do you use any specific tools to be efficient?

Michael Elyav: Obviously, video calls were very important; we were using several such as Zoom, Whereby & MS teams.

Did you benefit from any government grants, and did that help keep your business afloat?

Michael Elyav: Just a bit.
