This week has been an experience where partners have engaged and focused around what matters most – taking advantage of the opportunity we have to succeed together. Now, is the time to take action, become laser-focused, and execute. No other company on the planet has access to this innovation and can bring it together for one consistent experience. We heard this week that there is tremendous opportunity – 1.5 billion people use our products every day; let’s start scaling to the other 5.5 billion. We truly have an opportunity to win in the marketplace and innovate. It’s YOU, our partners, that help make that experience come to life.
