It's very exciting and encouraging to see 300+ delegates and Microsoft being one of the sponsors. It was great to see the energy and trying to understand the local trends and what is on top of mind of retailers. We're at the brink of industry revolution, and retailers need to think out loud about how to serve their customers better. We've talked about customer experiences, empowering employees, retail operations and optimizations and they way to transform its products. It was an eye opener that the customers are looking at digital channels as part of its strategy, and we love to make sure they use technology to maintain their advantages.
