The emergence of COVID-19 introduced major changes in consumer behavior, implicit in unprecedented adoption and integration of digitization across sectors and regions in emerging markets around the world. As the year unfolded, an acceleration of stay-at-home behavior took off, emphasizing the impactful shift to digitization across industries and sectors, inherent in fintech, telecoms, e-commerce, healthtech, online food delivery and video gaming, among others.
