Overview of measures by category

Reorientation of business activities

As a response to the pandemic situation, many businesses were forced to reorient their business activities. The cases presented in this category include company examples where production was changed or innovations were made in terms of markets or processes. It also includes examples of support instruments to facilitate such changes, such as the creation of platforms to market the (new) products or support aimed at matching businesses, to alleviate the impact of disrupted supply chains.

Overall, Eurofound has identified 72 measures in 24 countries for this category.
