Entry into the United States and possibly also into and within the EU will be restricted in an effort to slow the spread of COVID-19. These moves are having an immediate and broad impact on transatlantic and global business.

The European American Chamber of Commerce is organizing a network-wide webinar to analyze how this affects daily business activities and how it is impacting key sectors like aviation, manufacturing, finance as well as explore potential impacts of boarder closings now taking place in Europe, and around the world.

Our experts will examine issues such as:

• What the ‘travel ban’ means in reality to business travelers and who exactly is affected.
• How a reduction in air passenger volumes affects business operations in the short and long-term?
• Can consultants declare force majeure if they are unable to get to client sites?
• What considerations do businesses have to take regarding their networks and technology solutions to ensure adequate contingency of operations while people are stranded?
