Highlights
“Oracle's technology and business have never been stronger. And our breathtaking growth rate points to an even more prosperous future. At this time of strength is the right moment to pass the CEO role to the next generation of capable executives.”
“Today, Oracle is recognized as the cloud of choice for both AI training and inferencing. I'm very proud of that,”
“And by the way, this is true not only in companies — whole civilizations survive or disappear because of whether they’re adaptable to new conditions and new capabilities, and those that really take advantage of them are going to prosper,”
“And one of the reasons that businesses succeed is when they’re adaptable and when they’re absorbing those new technologies. But those that sort of stick with what they have? They get passed over.”
“Transforming yourself and modernizing yourself — that’s not a destination, it’s a constant journey,”
“In fact, anytime you stop, your competitors are going to pass you,”
