It’s during our darkest moments that we must focus to see the light.

Throughout history we have faced enormous challenges.
For every obstacle, we found a pathway to rise above and overcome.

Some of our greatest human advancements came from our darkest times.

Even global pandemics of the past sparked seismic shifts in our democracy and accelerated medical discoveries.

These human achievements paved a pathway for a transformation in research, science, and innovation.

That same path fueled a craving to change, to learn, to grow, to experiment, and to prosper.

But today we face more challenges – seemingly from every angle.

If necessity is the mother of invention, now is the time to change and innovate; to carve a different path.

The good news is: these new challenges make us stronger, more resilient problem solvers.

Today, we are armed with better tools, more channels of communication, and rapidly increasing knowledge.

We can take new hardships head on.

Let’s crush these problems together.
Let’s work harder to protect each other.
Let’s empower each other to communicate better.
And be inspired to innovate faster than ever before.

Focus on the light; not the darkness.
