“The current situation is very serious. In COWI, we do, like other companies, all we can to take care of each other and reduce the spread of Covid-19; We have established a technical set-up, which enables a large group of our employees to work from home and continue their normal workflow as much as possible. Moreover, meetings take place over Skype.”

We must do our best to reduce the socioeconomic consequences of the outbreak of the Coronavirus.
