Summary/Abstract: This report aims to examine whether the differences in the economic status and innovation development of leading companies from sectors that have gained and sectors that have lost as a result of the COVID pandemic are present, as public expectations have been. This verification is carried out by comparing the growth rates of several main economic indicators and patent activity. The results expected by the author largely coincide with public expectations, but history has shown that large companies, even in the most difficult times, driven by their creativity, find a way out of the crisis by innovating their activities.
