Pardon the pun, but it's a testing times for everyone including entrepreneurs and innovators everywhere. It's refreshing to see people continue to create and launch exciting new ventures, even in these testing times.

source: Leadership and Management have never been more important in this era of disruption that some are calling the 4th Industrial revolution where: Traditional business models are breaking down and being replaced by big tech (the so called FAANGS of Facebook, Apple, Amazon, Netflix and Google) - add to that the gig guys = UBER et al.
