Managers of over 25 companies discussed the new priorities and exchanged up-to-date information about the coronavirus crisis and ideas how to overcome the crisis. It happened within the frameworks of a discussion of the Bulgarian Business Leaders Forum named “Business amid Covid-19”. The IT is now at the forefront of addressing the health and the economic crisis, the participants pointed out. Deputy Chairman of BBLF Iravan Hira underlined that the Covid-19 pandemic has become a powerful engine of business digitalization. “At the first moment we moved our offices at home. At the next stage, there will be accelerated automation and change in our perceptions of the professions”, Iravan Hira further said.

According to Eurostat data, in 2018 only 0.3% of the employed Bulgarians practiced remote work.
