I would like to start out by sharing my deepest thanks and congratulations on a successful quarter. It was a fight, and like early 20^thCentury author Robert Collier said, "Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out." Our combined efforts which we repeated day in and day out over the past three months have led to a strong quarter of growth amidst the harsh realities we have faced the last eleven months.

There are many opportunities coming in the weeks ahead, and I wanted to take a few minutes to personally share them with you.

Cisco IoT Connect

This event on February 25 was designed exclusively for Partners to gather with Cisco's leadership to discuss global market transitions, use cases, and strategic differentiation to build an IoT practice. With the landscape of connected operations at an inflection point, it's important for customers to enable more remote operations, operational safety, and renewed infrastructure investments. I will be presenting a session on Fueling Partner Success with IoT Distribution. Register for this event to attend my session and see other Cisco leaders like Oliver Tuszik, SVP of Global Partner Organization, and many others.
