He also mentioned the importance of incorporating science and technology in business models which can help entrepreneurs to make their business viable despite the changing times.

“With the need for social distancing and health protocols in today’s new normal, digital platforms, changing business models for current businesses for them to stay relevant and become competitive is really very important,” he added.

Lopez highlighted how innovation can help entrepreneurs thrive and survive amid the pandemic.
