The COVID-19 pandemic presents extreme challenges to businesses and the competitive landscape will be a hot bed of innovation, quick pivots, divestments and acquisitions as businesses devise new models to recover growth.
Businesses need to understand where their products and services fit within the new marketplace, and emerging competitors can quickly usurp incumbents when their offering is better suited to the changing market demands.

Having access to such resources will enable competitors to broaden their service and product offering, create compelling brand propositions and enable access to new markets. It is therefore essential to consider the adaptations which your
