Yes, BlackBerry here. So just - so BlackBerry $624 million company founded in 1980s and it has become a leading intelligence security software and service provider to businesses all around the world. Our focus today is going to be really around the car, and through their QNX division, they've really become a critical enabler of software-defined vehicles, providing real-time operating systems and the hypervisor solutions.
They're really in a unique position as QNX really enables the applications that OEMs or third-parties create. And while QNX really is the clear leader here in the vehicle, their software is deployed on over 235 million vehicles on the road today. They work with more than 40 automakers globally. 24 of the 25 top EV automakers are using QNX. Basically all the Tier 1s also use them as well.
They also offer unique solutions outside the vehicles to help developers create, test, and update applications in the cloud and then push those updates over the air. We're going to talk a lot about that and here to discuss is QNX, how the software and vehicle architectures are going to evolve, is John Wall, the Senior Vice President and Co-Head of BlackBerry Technology Solutions, and then Tim Foote, Head of Investor Relations. Thanks guys very much for being here....
