“Our starting point, our point of departure, was always keeping our people safe, and then keeping our customers safe, and then thinking about how we could use technology to amplify our business in that very strange time that we all lived through, particularly in 2019. And we didn't just survive; we thrived through that time.” - David Walmsley
