In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, one group of motivated individuals quickly mobilized to create a powerful community. Their goal was to bring the tech world together in creating solutions to help people during the pandemic. In this event, Stela Suils Cuesta (SG Lisbon’s Director) and João Figueirinhas Costa (CEO of Humaniaks and spokesperson for the #tech4COVID19 movement) discuss how this powerful idea came to be, how it all came together and how they managed to make an impact from the get-go, by combining talent and technology as a movement. The #tech4covid19 movement has already more than 5469 volunteers, working on 72 initiatives (36 projects and 36 prospects) to beat the virus and the associated economic crisis. Portugal tops the OECD list of the countries with the most innovative projects to combat COVID-19. This movement had a lot to do with it. There are already a large number of initiatives launched to the public generating real value to society, like: These are just 6 out of the 36 amazing projects of this Human to Human movement, visit their website to know more or to join them as a volunteer..
