These March 2020 market trends range from real estate crypto payments to local music promotion partnerships. While Spotify's partnership with promotional music platform Resident Advisor aims to bring attention to local events and live performance listings, fäm Properties' partnership with Huobi makes cryptocurrency housing payments accessible to customers.
Another notable example is The Sustainability Academy -- "a new global initative by CSE that seeks to bring about affordable specialized online education and coaching in the field of Sustainability and Corporate Responsibility." With climate change greatly affecting businesses across industries worldwide, this initiative aims to make information more easily accessible to employees and employers.
Other March 2020 market trends include Microsoft's recent investment in SuperAwesome, a kid-friendly advertising platform that is best known for its safe and ethical business model.
