IT industry challenges in the year of the pandemic

On Friday, March 13, 2020, the President of the Republic declared, through a press conference, the health emergency in Uruguay, based on the confirmation of four cases of COVID-19 virus infections. Eight months after this declaration, on Friday November 13, 2020, the IT Observatory and the People Talent Commission of Cuti, as well as the Digital & IT Area of the consultancy firm Advice, organized a discussion group entitled "Challenges faced by the IT industry in the pandemic: new ways of working, IT security and learning", in which companies in the IT sector were invited to reflect on what they had done in this critical situation, what decisions were taken and what they had learned in this "new normality".
