The greatest concern in the scenario of Covid-19 is, without a doubt, the health of the population. Although its lethality is low, the illness is highly contaminating, endangering health systems all over the world.

And that is why confinement has become the prevention against a collapse. However, it causes worrisome damage to worldwide economies. With fewer people allowed to go outdoors, general production is lowered, and the demand is also reduced for indirect production services, such as logistics, attendance, and many others.

Recession, in this scenario, seems inevitable. And even if we chose not to have quarantine, the economic damage would come from the implosion of the health systems in several countries worldwide. What to do, then?

We must concentrate on continuing to offer services and consumer goods in any way possible. Investing in digital solutions for sales, seeking new attendance channels for clients, and understanding their demands at this moment are essential attitudes for maintaining the economy heated and responding to the needs of the population.

Logistics, as well as relocation, continue as services essential to the public. Therefore, we shall continue working efficiently, offering our work to those who need it. Always, however, following protocols recommended by doctors, which ensure the health of our collaborators and clients.

Since we are more and more at home, due to the scenario of confinement in which we find ourselves, it is important to find diversions that are both fun and educational.

Digital ambiances are great tools at these moments. They allow us to visit different parts of the world without leaving home. An excellent example is the museums that offer free digital visits.

Some, such as the Parisian Louvre, offer an immersive experience, using Google Street View so that users can walk around and see the collection of the world’s greatest art museum. This is a free example, and can be accessed by phone, tablet or computer.

In Brazil, we also have some museums that offer the same service. The Museu Minas Gerais Vale, situated in Belo Horizonte, has a large collection that tells the history of one of Brazil’s most important states. Its virtual tour shows all the wealth of historical documents and artworks that the museum holds.

And to wind up our tips, one of New York’s major museums: the Metropolitan Museum. Owner of the one of the planet’s largest art collections, this museum has prepared some really important exhibitions. This can all be checked out on its official site.

What we are going through in the year 2020 is, without a doubt, the disruption of several social paradigms all over the world. The novel coronavirus has demanded, and tends to continue demanding, an adaptation with regard to several points of our lives.

In the markets, it’s no different. Reflections about work methods will occur in several segments of the economy. The main aspects of these changes are connected to the adoption of technologies that automate to the utmost processes within a productive chain. Thus, if new situations such as this occur, work is less at risk.

Logistics are also subject to adaptations. On the one hand, this specific field is well known to adapt quickly to new technological solutions that make its work more efficient. However, there are still several points that can be improved by the market. 

In every case, automation is a key to the resolution of diverse problems. It standardizes the execution of tasks, reduces the time spent, and makes the whole productive chain more efficient.

This movement does not mean the loss of work posts, however. In all of the technological changes the world has undergone, the market has readapted its work demands, both in the creation of new occupations, and in new sectors that didn’t exist before.

Therefore, it is natural that changes be applied and new work dynamics occur. This will help us to be better prepared for eventual needs when these arise.

Good news is coming from Europe: the planning of the main continental economies is of a gradual reopening of industry and commerce throughout the coming weeks.

France is planning the gradual reopening of commerce beginning on May 11th. In a nationwide pronouncement, Emmanuel Macron confirmed that the date marks the opening of nursery schools and schools all over the country.

In Spain, a country severely affected by Covid-19, the gradual relaxation of confinement protocols has been coming about slowly. The same planning is being executed in Italy, with the reopening of certain segments of commerce that are not considered focuses of agglomeration.

In many of these countries, such as Germany, the relocation service was considered essential even during the most severe part of the quarantine. This positioning was followed by many countries throughout the world, even in Brazil.

It is expected that the reopening of commerce, together with the resumption of industrial activities and a gradual relaxation of confinement measures will have a positive impact on world economy. Obviously, the logistics and moving sector in each of these countries will also react with a greater demand for services in this scenario.

Although the American countries are still presenting peaking in contamination, it’s important to look at places that have come through this situation and understand how they returned to their routine activities. Thus, we can plan efficiently for a return to normality.

With the arrival of a pandemic of proportions never seen in a century, we see the suspension of practically all major events all over the world. Art expositions, fairs, shows, sports events and several others have suffered in this scenario.

Therefore, we must reflect on the impact these actions, necessary at the moment, will have on several markets directly or indirectly linked to these events. The cancellation of fairs, shows and expositions leads to the total loss of the investment planned by all of the parties involved in its structuring.

Producers, businessmen, sponsors and many other segments are strongly impacted. The logistics branch, an essential part of this process, is also impacted. The mounting of major events is an important part of our work, generates jobs, heats up the economy, and brings life to cities.

It’s evident that, in this scenario, events must be suspended. However, the best way to resolve this situation is by rescheduling them on new dates.

This way, the public doesn’t miss the opportunity of having a pleasant experience, and the participants in the processes of planning, mounting, and executing the events also keep their businesses alive. It’s an extremely important step in the contexts of economic fragility such as we are having nowadays.

The FINK Events Division can help in the new plans for the event, and is operating according to all the protocols of health and safety.
