WEBVTT 00:00:00.031 -- 00:00:03.595 Good morning, everybody. Thank you for coming. 00:00:03.595 -- 00:00:06.018 For those who don't know me, my name is Julie Southern. 00:00:06.018 -- 00:00:09.000 I'm chairman of RWS. 00:00:09.803 -- 00:00:14.849 I think it's a very overused phrase, but nevertheless a very true phrase to say 00:00:14.849 -- 00:00:19.816 that change has never been happening faster than it's happening now. 00:00:19.816 -- 00:00:24.902 And it's also true, I think, to say that with as much change 00:00:24.902 -- 00:00:30.237 as we're happening now, it's very hard for us all to imagine kind of the impact of 00:00:30.237 -- 00:00:35.563 that that's going to have on us as individuals, on society, on how businesses 00:00:35.563 -- 00:00:39.627 work. But out of disruption, 00:00:39.627 -- 00:00:44.972 usually good comes and society progresses and businesses find new 00:00:44.972 -- 00:00:50.398 ways of doing things, new approaches to the market, and everything moves 00:00:50.398 -- 00:00:55.203 forward. Now, I say that, and I don't mean that everything moves forward in a simple 00:00:55.203 -- 00:01:00.649 and seamless journey. It's hard. It often faces setbacks, 00:01:00.649 -- 00:01:04.334 and it probably takes more time than many people think. 00:01:04.334 -- 00:01:09.541 But when I look at RWS and I look at the work that Ben and Candy and the team have been 00:01:09.541 -- 00:01:14.567 doing, I think the thing that we are really excited about is that 00:01:14.567 -- 00:01:19.754 most of the macro trends that we see at the moment we think play into areas that 00:01:19.754 -- 00:01:25.040 we are already good at and spaces that we have every right to succeed 00:01:25.040 -- 00:01:26.549 in. 00:01:26.549 -- 00:01:31.059 We're not going to succeed in them toda...
