The COVID-19 pandemic brought a boost to the digital services sector. Third-parties online marketplaces enable the economy to keep running during a global shutdown and build resiliency for the days to come.

This strongly impedes the ability of countries to develop digital services and consists in one of the main challenges to tackle. Still, digital services also bring opportunities that should be studied.
