We’re proud to share an important global milestone for Intuitive: more than 20 million patients worldwide have been operated on by surgeons using da Vinci surgical systems. Thank you to the innovative surgeons, care teams, and executives who provided or enabled this life-enhancing care across Europe and the world. This milestone is yours, too. How we got here is a decades-long story of collaborative innovation, but where we’re going next is where our focus lies. The key to success over the next decade will be found in building platforms clinicians actually use. By improving continuously and connecting information from diagnosis, through treatment all the way to outcomes, Intuitive aims to continue transforming care for patients everywhere. In Europe, that means continuing to deliver on our promise of a connected ecosystem and full portfolio of robotic-assisted systems. From da Vinci Xi and X, which have delivered proven value and will continue to do so for many years, to da Vinci 5, our most advanced and integrated surgical system yet. From da Vinci SP, a single-port surgical system designed to increase access and create new opportunities for care, to Ion, our endoluminal platform that is transforming lung cancer care. One procedure at a time, one skill refined at a time, building toward a future where exceptional care is available to more patients, in more places, performed by surgeons who never stop growing. That is and will always be Intuitive. #WeAreIntuitive
