This is a special edition of The Reader, a weekly round-up of stories you need to know from Fortune editor-in-chief Clifton Leaf.
This week, Fortune launched our special report How to Reopen, a package of stories that explores what companies are doing—and what they must do—to successfully survive the pandemic.
The great challenge for business leaders in all industries is to look beyond their immediate operational issues. One thing to consider, in fintech: America won’t be going cashless anytime soon. In retail, pop-up businesses are thriving. Across the pond, the largest film industry and cinema market in Europe is confronting a permanent shift—not just in safety, but in how viewers consume movies. Meanwhile, live golf is returning to television.

SPECIAL REPORT Coming out of a crisis, the boldest companies win
Economic calamities—even tragic, once-a-century global pandemics—require business leaders to find opportunity in the chaos. It’s there to be found. Leaders who can seize it will mitigate the pain for employees, consumers, vendors, communities, and investors.

MUST READ Pop-up retail was made for the pandemic
For businesses, having the ability to operate with a makeshift physical presence has never been more essential. A temporary lease is less of a financial gamble than a long-term commitment, so a pop-up can be a lower-stakes springboard for refining everything from product offerings to store protocols.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT Why America won’t be going cashless anytime soon
