Solidarity in Times of Crisis

The COVID-19 pandemic has had massive impact at a global scale. If mostly negative, it has also generated an incredible surge of solidarity. Governments, associations and individuals have all in their own way launched initiatives to help those most in need. Koenig & Bauer Banknote Solutions along with the banknote industry have played their part too.

Since the pandemic took hold in early 2020, the consequences worldwide have been considerable, with a large number of lost lives, increased human seclusion or economic recession. At the same time, a natural surge of solidarity could be observed, with for example many individuals joining associations or participating into blood donation for the first time.

Governments, associations and companies have not been outdone, including the banknote industry and Koenig & Bauer Banknote Solutions.
