The series will also seek to highlight breakthrough technologies related to issues influenced by the pandemic such as social distancing, food supply and coronavirus cures and prevention methods.
The first episode is titled "Investing in the pandemic and the new normal" and will feature OurCrowd founder and CEO Jon Medved; Alec Ellison, OurCrowd US chairman and former vice chairman of Jefferies; and Steve Krausz, managing partner of US Venture Partners. The three will talk about business strategies during the coronavirus pandemic.
"It is the perfect place to grapple with the business challenges created by this terrible pandemic that has shattered so many lives, and map out what is required to fuel the innovation we need to move fast and fix things," said Medved about the SALT Talks.
"The series will showcase a wide variety of startup technologies together with the entrepreneurs and investors behind them, giving the public a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the startup world,” he said.
