It was great to see members of #womeninIASP this morning, for a lightning round-the-world snapshot of our #innovationecosystems including ongoing challenges for women #startup founders and how we can help each other to help them #IASPseville

To all gov leaders - how about we allocate funds from federal EI to help small businesses send employees home (who can’t work remotely) for 30 days so we can nip this sooner and avoid massive healthcare overload @DominicCardy

[Laura O'Blenis @thinkstiletto]

Do not leave an open ended ban on travel and on school closures. If everyone can do their part for a reasonable period of 30 days, we can better manage long-term impact @DominicCardy

[Laura O'Blenis @thinkstiletto]

To all gov leaders. Put a reasonable timeline on closures like 30 days so we do not crash our economy amid the crisis @DominicCardy
