As the product of one of the most incredible achievements while facing political, social, and economic crises, I hope to emphasize that it isn't about luck, but methodical preparation, strong leadership and a clear vision that brought the vaccine forward. It is equally applicable to any endeavor that any entrepreneur, professional, or executive chooses to undertake today." -Dr. Albert Bourla
