Companies are facing an unprecedented crisis with the COVID-19 pandemic that is disrupting global supply chains, dragging financial markets into all-time lows, and taking a toll on both the world’s population and economic health. In response to this situation, travel restrictions, lockdowns, and mass testings are among the measures imposed in several jurisdictions. With Northern Mindanao being the accessible region and a strategic location for trade with large tracts of land available for agriculture and industry, it is crucial to discuss the economic health of Region 10 as well as its next steps and initiatives to complement the government's efforts in this plight.

Following recent developments due to COVID-19, ECCP Cagayan de Oro/Northern Mindanao is organizing a webinar entitled “Post ECQ in Northern Mindanao: What’s Next?” on 11 May 2020 from 03:00 PM – 04:00 PM with Guest Speaker Mylah Cariño, NEDA-X Regional Director. This webinar seeks to discuss the current COVID-19 situation in Northern Mindanao and how it has affected the business economy, Post-ECQ Guidelines for the region, and other key business/economy concerns relating to COVID-19.
