We should potentially expect a surge in investment in digital capabilities and technologies that will make every company resilient and nimble enough to shrug off the next outbreak. Mustafa Alrawi, assistant editor in chief at The National, and Kelsey Warner, future editor, is joined by Leon Smith, founder of crypto asset exchange DEX.
