Reality has a funny way of correcting itself and we currently find ourselves in the middle of a major, global crisis – but it is still our collective reality. Governments, institutions, business, and society are all, unilaterally and unquestionably, going to change as a result of the coronavirus crisis. While it appears that chaos and entropy are defining the world today, yesterday, and in the near future, certain groups of innovators, entrepreneurs, and intellectuals are taking the initiative to build a new normalcy.

The funny thing about crises is that while they may bring global commerce to a standstill, they also have the power to mobilize people who know that they aren’t powerless to take action – NOW!

It is time for the Euregio to join the fight against corona-caused entropy!
