Updated: Feb 11
It’s no secret that industry overall has been directly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Fortunately, the European institutions have prepared a series of mechanisms to help companies in need of financial assistance - as well as the population. The COVID-19 crisis has shown, among other things, how difficult European cooperation can be sometimes, especially in policies where the EU has limited powers to support Member States.

Limiting the spread of the virus
Ensuring the provision of medical equipment
Promoting research for treatments and vaccines
Supporting jobs, businesses and the economy
