We kick off a regular podcast series on the impact of the current COVID19 pandemic on the Canadian IT channel community by checking in with one of Canada’s largest independent solution providers.

In this edition of the podcast, Compugen president Harry Zarek joins us to discuss how the company and its customers have been impacted by the pandemic and much more.

“I’m thankful we’re in an industry that will continue to be very relevant to how our modern economy operates,” Zarek says. 

We discuss:

  • how Compugen has adapted its business to support work-from-home and other physical distancing techniques;
  • how the company’s customers have been impacted across multiple verticals and how Compugen is supporting them;
  • why Zarek feels the pandemic will “put to bed the feeling that [companies] can accelerate their move to digitization at their own pace” and
  • how the more widespread acceptance of work-from-home will reshape business models in the long term.
