The Effect of Covid-19 on Businesses
Global Context - Globalization and Sustainability
Introduction
My personal project is an informative research essay. The essay has an interview from two business owners. It also talks about how the government of Ireland has spent money on supporting people through the pandemic, the final segment is on international companies such as Amazon.
The goal of this project for me was to inform people on how the pandemic has affected businesses and how they are run. It informs regular people interested on the topic as well as letting people understand how real business owners feel through an interview hosted. I thought that this was fitting for a topic that covered a topic revolving around how businesses and companies were struggling in a financial crisis.

Inspiration
My idea all a long was to have a project that revolves around businesses, however since the economy is forever changing I thought that I would do it on a topic that was relevant to now. This is when I had decided that I would do it on the effects that COVID-19 has had on businesses.
To start I was always thinking of having an interview as the focal point for the essay as it is a good source of data as well as opinions. I then decided that I would interview two business owners in my town Greystones. I created a survey using google forms and sent it to them, this was then added to the essay. However this wasn’t enough to cover the topic so I added a paragraph on the government’s spending and then also a paragraph on more international companies such as Amazon.
