\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\nIt’s no secret that a number of\u00a0small-and-medium-sized businesses are suffering like never before during these unprecedented times.\u00a0Entrepreneurs are trying to adapt their business models and are investing major resources into researching how the COVID-19 pandemic is going to shift user behaviour in the forthcoming future.<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\nDuring these critical times, when the global economy is suffering from an all-time slump, many have put their start-up ideas on a complete halt and are focusing on sustaining their current jobs. Although, some have gathered all they have and have jumped in headfirst into the start-up sea during this peak corona crisis.<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\nA number of people have also taken the downtime to work on their side projects, partake in community initiatives, and generate unique business concepts, because sometimes, just sometimes when you pull away from socialising and spend time in\u00a0solitary, you get creative… and when you get creative, you thrive!<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\nThe following three corona start-ups are a clear indication that self-isolation has given birth to some great ideas and thoughtful business concepts that the community is more than willing to help lend a hand to.<\/div>\n<\/p>\n
3. Dough It Yourself <\/a>is one such corona start-up thas flexin’ big time this quarantine season!<\/h2>\n
Dough It Yourself, is Dubai\u2019s first-ever ‘DIY Gourmet Pizza’ kit delivery resto! Seeing how self-isolation has got the best of us to don on a chef’s hat (much to our dismay), this unique concept delivery service is giving you\u00a0the chance to cook gourmet pizza in your own homes!<\/p>\n
From the dough and homemade tomato sauce to the mozzarella and a selection of toppings,\u00a0Dough It Yourself, have thought of it ALL! Plus, they throw in a cute chefs hat to each order for the ULTIMATE insta-selfie. #KAAYOOOTT!<\/p>\n
YUUSS!\u00a0Dough It Yourself got us like:<\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n
In just 3 weeks this corona start-up has sold over 500 pizzas to Dubai residents, who are obsessing over this fab DIY idea!<\/h2>\n

2. P\u00c9P\u00c9 BEAR<\/a> have taken upon themselves to ensure the ultimate comfort for your baby bears with their\u00a0100% organic\u00a0handmade baby clothing<\/h2>\n
Hubby-wife duo,\u00a0James and\u00a0Sophie have launched their\u00a0direct-to-consumer corona start-up, where\u00a0Sophie handmakes baby clothing with\u00a0100% organic fabrics that are GREAT\u00a0for the planet and also for a baby’s delicate skin as no chemicals are used in the processing of the fabrics.<\/p>\n
So NO more annoyed little babies\u00a0screaming in the middle of the night because their onesies or tiny lil PJs are irritating their sensitive baby skin…<\/h3>\n
<\/p>\n
P\u00c9P\u00c9 BEAR lets you pick your own fabric,\u00a0size and cuff colour so the items turn out ULTRA personal and they can also match a bandana bib with leggings or shorts in the same print.<\/p>\n
\n“From one mum to another, you can count on quality, care, and consistency with every P\u00c9P\u00c9 BEAR piece. We do everything ourselves from home including cutting out the fabrics, making the garments, talking to customers, photographing… and even some deliveries.<\/em>“<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
They’ve had a great response thus far with over 15 orders in just 19 days.<\/p>\n

1. The\u00a0Pandemic Camp is basically two supergirls that are single-handedly giving the world a lesson on how to give back to the community during these testing times!<\/h2>\n
Less of a corona start-up and more of a corona social\u00a0initiative,\u00a0Simran Kanal and Mehak Sunil Lalchandani have gone out (not literally… they’re running this camp remotely) and done what most of us have only talked about doing.<\/p>\n
Putting their money and their time where their mouth is, these two girls are giving FREE-OF-COST virtual\u00a0one-on-one zoom tuitions to students who have dropped out of extra tuitions, because they can’t afford to pay the fees due to\u00a0financial difficulties atm.<\/p>\n
The brilliant duo is focusing on\u00a0helping out students in subjects such as English, Maths and Hindi and they cater to students from Grade 1 to 5 from the CBSE board. This initiative is only until the end of June.<\/em><\/p>\n
Humanity is still alive and these two girls are proof of that!!<\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n
Students and parents who require this support for their kids can contact\u00a0Simran Kanal and Mehak Lalchandani via their email\u00a0pandemiccamp@gmail.com<\/em><\/h2>\n
(Please only email if you’re looking to enrol your kids to the camp. They are not accepting any volunteers at the moment.)<\/em><\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
If you have a BILLION dollar business idea that you know will thrive amidst the ongoing pandemic but don’t know the first thing about start-ups, then get yo’self this “The $100 Startup: Fire Your Boss, Do What You Love and Work Better to Live More<\/a>“!<\/h2>\n
This book will give you the lowdown on all things start-up and the world of low-cost investments.<\/p>\n
Promising review:<\/p>\n
\n“Didn’t know what to expect so was pleasantly surprised… Things I liked: 1) thorough coverage of all things related to conceiving, test driving, launching and growing a micro business. 2) case studies and realistic financials: perfectly highlighted the diverse range of product and services that can be offered through such a model of micro business. The financials are realistic numbers, therefore setting reasonable expectations (hopefully) for people who might consider trying or benchmarking. Enjoyed the book a lot, and might be considering trying my hand at some side-gigs. I mean, why not?”<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
