City startups help SMEs get back to work

Local startups are offering their latest technologies to help small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) resume work, including finding protection and sterilization products, and enabling working from home and contactless recruitment during the COVID-19 pandemic.

CC Intelligence has offered business connection services, especially to help firms find the protection and sterilization products needed for work to resume. 

The company’s Qixinbao service has a database of 210 million enterprises and 70 billion business information lines. During the pandemic, the firm highlighted suppliers’ information on the front pages of its health-care, protection and sterilization and medical test categories, Tang Songrong, vice president of CC Intelligence, said during a city government press conference.

MoSeeker, a human resources firm, has offered AI and contactless recruitment services to firms in Shanghai.
