I think it's incredibly important. I mean, when you look at corporations, you see, you know, there's a ton of resources, there's a lot of human capital, but there's also a lot of regulation, there's a lot of red tape, Things kind of go a little slower. And then when you look at startups, their value prop is they can move fast, they could be at the cutting edge, they can test and iterate and move a lot quicker than corporations can. And so when you marry the two, it really creates this wonderful symbiotic relationship where you have the resources to test, you have the controls and the guardrails in place to make sure that you're not breaking anything or you know, you're doing right by your customers, you're doing no harm. But then you can also collaborate with startups and create a really wonderful partnership and create a very sustainable future for either your customers or your employees or your companies. And so I think it's just finding that middle ground where corporations are leveraging their value add and the resources and the opportunities that they have as a large scale enterprise.
