RBC calls on the Government to save Romanian startups

Paula Pirvanescu, President of Romanian Business Chamber, calls on the Government to save Romanian startup companies which, during this period, are facing a difficult struggle for economic survival.

She asks for financial compensation for companies organizing events such as business forums, conferences, fairs, exhibitions, which were canceled following the COVID-19 crisis. RBC also proposes the establishment of a solidarity fund of one billion Euro to support micro-enterprises and liberal professions that had losses between March 2019 – March 2020 (50% of the turnover).

One other proposed measure is the acquisition of drones by the state for monitoring the persons in isolation during the COVID-19 crisis.
