Coronavirus has dramatically changed the world as we knew it in many diverse ways. This new volume explores the impact of the pandemic on many aspects of life and work, including the global economy, entrepreneurship and innovation, intellectual property laws, agriculture, healthcare, teaching and education, marketing strategies, banking mechanisms, travel and tourism, and science and technology. The book looks at how virus outbreak has highlighted and emphasized the role of technological innovation as an essential connector as international borders were shuttered, and commercial activity was disturbed at an unprecedented scale.
