The document advocates for strategic, empathetic responses that add value rather than exploit the crisis.
Speed kills tips for managing crisis in the era of social mediaNuno Fraga Coelho
Social media has increased the speed at which crises can develop, so companies must be prepared to respond quickly. To be prepared, companies should have a crisis management plan that includes monitoring social media for potential issues, designating a crisis response team, and drafting messaging to respond on social media platforms in real-time. The case studies of the CDC's response to the H1N1 outbreak and Ford's handling of a fan site issue demonstrate how responding quickly and transparently on social media can help manage crises as they develop online.
Reimagining marketing for the next normal.NishthaJain54
The document discusses how the COVID-19 pandemic has significantly changed consumer behaviors and habits. It recommends that companies focus on customer empathy, tell relevant and authentic stories that provide value, and recognize that consumer behaviors and preferences will continue to change in the long-term as the "next normal" emerges. Analytics and data will need to be leveraged to understand and adapt to these ongoing shifts.
In the near future when the dust settles… And it will… if you want to hit these low marketing costs and get a head start on your competition you need to get your digital marketing plan in order yesterday. Cause when that time comes and the world goes back to normal you need to hit the ground running.
7 Reasons why Companies & Government should invest in Digital TransformationIsmail Sayeed
Early adoption of digital solutions to provide services, whether health related or not, allows organisations to be ready for future user demands. The large pool of data on patterns of service/product consumption, feedback and possible future behaviour (extracted from data analytics) can guide strategic decisions on what to invest in and for whom.
Digital healthcare innovation was needed decades ago, with or without a global health emergency. Other industries with complex systems have rapidly adopted digital transformation; such as logistics networks, taxation, commerce and others
- except healthcare.
A company that is already accustomed to some form of digital-based communication and operations (as much as possible) are the ones most able to survive and thrive in these circumstances.
A government body that can still function and serve remotely and digitally is the most ideal form of democracy. An organisation with remote workers, paperless reporting, established telecommunications through all chains of command are really agile in its truest form.
I had predicted 2 years ago that digital healthcare solutions would be the dominant narrative for the emerging middle class of many developing countries in Asia.

We are going to cover how to use via API to: - execute prompts in text and chat - cover multimodal use cases with image prompts. - finetune and distill to improve knowledge domains - run function calls with foundation models to optimize them for specific tasks. At the end of the session, developers will understand how to innovate with generative AI and develop apps using the generative ai industry trends.
2. Another deck
on Coronavirus?
Not just another one. The objective with this document is to build a collaborative
live resource that is always up to date and evolves along with the situation. Our
goal is both to inspire with examples and help make decisions from our analysis,
sharing learnings that help us all navigate the uncertain of a context so difficult
to anticipate.
3. Behaviours are changing,
and it’s key to be adaptive.
Traditional marketing rules are just not enough in the context we live in. We must
be empathetic with a consumer that has seen their lifestyle changing completely all
of a sudden. We all now face an uncertain scenario, with a huge emotional load that
has reframed our priorities, needs, and way of consuming. We must embrace an agile
strategic mindset to adapt to these changes and be able to add value.
4. It’s time to be strategic,
even in the short term.
The urgency of this crisis shouldn’t push us to act tactically, or even paralyze
us, thinking only in the short term. Because the choices we make today, will have a
great impact in how society sees our companies in the future. That’s why it’s more
important than ever to think strategically, even in the short term. We must also
think about our plan for when the situation evolves and we enter the next phase,
and how will this change us.
5. This is a global crisis,
not a communication brief.
Society needs now more than ever companies that are up to the challenge. Companies
willing to change their priorities in an adverse business context, putting people
first. This is not about finding an opportunity in crisis, but changing our mindset
to “what can I do, with my business and my products to help the ones affected by
this situation”. It’s time to be generous in order to be generous and give back, if
we want to have a place in society tomorrow.
8. One of the most defining characteristics
and never seen before components of this
crisis is the overexposure we have to
information. In an emergency like this,
avoiding fake information and being
correctly informed is key to avoid rumors
and know the measures we need to take to
stop the virus spread. That’s why some
brands are amplifying these messages and
official recommendations, as well as
fighting against fake news directly.
1. Information
and Fake News.
9. SNGULAR
Lanza una plataforma para frenar el
colapso de emergencias.
QUÉ ESTÁ PASANDO
#aplanalacurva es una iniciativa colaborativa para
responder ante el colapso de centros de salud y
teléfonos de emergencias. La plataforma
proporciona información, prácticas y medidas
contrastadas provenientes de fuentes oficiales,
utilizando la tecnología para dar respuestas a las
distintas consultas a través de inteligencia
artificial.
QUÉ PODEMOS APRENDER
Aunque parezca contradictorio en una situación de
aislamiento, proliferan los proyectos
colaborativos. Una situación en la que de forma
natural da un paso al frente la revolución de los
sistemas de voz.

10. CORONAMADRID
Several companies develop an app to free
the emergency system’s contact lines.
What’s happening
The Community of Madrid announced the launch of an
app to relieve the pressure from the health
services saturated contact channels. To develop it
in record breaking time, several companies of
different areas collaborated, such as Telefonica,
Google, Carto or Mendesaltaren. With this app
users can autoevaluate their symptoms, receive
recommendations, or even be redirected to the
sanitary system when needed.
What can we learn
Access to quality official information is vital to
stop the spread of the virus. Collaboration between
companies appears as the most efficient new
standard to react in a fast and agile way in order
to support emergency services.

11. INSTAGRAM
Blocks hashtag #coronavirus to redirect
to official information sources
What’s happening
If we try to search for “coronavirus” in
Instagram, this is the message we will find
redirecting us to the Ministry of Health website.
An exercise of responsibility to stop the spread
of fake information or social alarm messages.
What can we learn
Simple gestures such as helping contain misleading
information are more useful than ever in the fight
against the virus, and companies that channel and
handle this messages should act responsibly.
12. INSTAGRAM
Blocks search for AR filters related
with Coronavirus.
What’s happening
Since the expansion of the illness started,
Instagram has fought against misinformation and
alarm spreading messages. Now, it also blocked the
access to AR filters that used coronavirus as a
theme in order to be respectful with the infected
and stop banalization.
What can we learn
It’s key to make people understand that the
situation in serious, and not something to joke
about when people are dying. It’s not that every
filter is dangerous, but given the situation,
it’s better to act early and avoid a further
reputational crisis.

13. FB / TW /REDDIT
Unite to fight against Coronavirus
related fake news.
What’s happening
The White House asked tech giants to help fight
misinformation about the virus, help with the
transition to work from home and remote education.
In order to fight fake news, several platforms
have developed collaborative measures such as
redirecting to official sources, or eliminating
coronavirus related apps from their marketplaces.
What can we learn
Beyond simple gestures, the context requires a
deep commitment from the new channels where people
access information to ensure that this information
is credible, truthful and official.

14. PALACIO DE LA PRENSA
Informa en sus pantallas de los
pacientes curados en tiempo real
QUÉ ESTÁ PASANDO
Super 8 anunciaba que mostraría la información en
directo de los casos de pacientes recuperados de
coronavirus en España (aunque la imagen es un
mockup). Además, afirmaban compartir información
sobre las recomendaciones sanitarias para evitar
contagios y protegerse de la enfermedad. A pesar
de la prohibición de salir a la calle, el
pensamiento da muestras de la necesidad social de
información positiva frente a la saturación de
malas noticias.
QUÉ PODEMOS APRENDER
La crisis tiene un componente emocional muy
marcado, y más con la situación de aislamiento.
Estar también expuestos a información positiva es
clave para ayudar a soportar y superar la
situación

15. 2.Health
and safety.
Educating in health safety measures and
habits to avoid the spread of the disease,
is also one of the priority areas where
some brands are acting. Be it from an
information point of view, by using their
communications to raise awareness, or even
putting in place measures and actions to
protect both their consumers and
employees, event the most functional
actions are useful in the phase we are
currently in.
16. LUSH
Lets their customers wash their hands
in all of their shops.
What’s happening
At the beginning of the crisis, Lush announced
that they would let anyone wash their hands in
their shops in a gesture to help stop the virus
from spreading. Posters in the shop also showed
the correct way to wash your hand in order to
clean them effectively.
What can we learn
Sometimes even small gestures are more effective
than big positioning campaigns. At least, in a pre
confinement scenario. But this kind of actions are
something to take into account for when state of
alarm and confinement ends.

experience, and think about how others are living this. And as a brand, be able to step
aside and don’t be the protagonist, leave space for what needs to be prioritised now.
Understand the behavioural changes
people are going through.
60. In an emergency situation, is key to put ourselves at the service of the society, and never
be opportunistic. It’s a fine line easy to cross, but here intentions makes the difference.
Your purpose and sustainability strategies will be put to test. We must rethink our value
propositions. But be sure, brands that decide to act and support people in need, will
come out of this reinforced with people’s trust and respect. What you decide to do today,
will define how you are seen tomorrow.
Think about how can you help.
61. As historical data from the 2008 crisis from KantarMillwardBrown tells us, strong brands
are able to recover 9 times faster from recession scenarios. The situation is tough, and
it’s easy to be tempted to cut marketing budgets. But that’s an error that comes hard on
the business, not just in the short, but in the long term.
That’s why it’s also key to start thinking in how to approach the next phase after
confinement, to be ready to start the way to recovery.
Be ready to be back up again.
Start planning your strategies
for the next phase, now.
