"In the face of adversity, we have seen remarkable acts of courage, compassion, and perseverance. We’ve seen companies creatively transform the way they work, and entire industries pivot to provide life-saving resources to those in need. We’ve watched moms and dads masterfully adapt to working-from-home, and children around the world embrace new ways of learning online.
It is our belief and our hope that 2020 will be remembered for more than its struggle; but equally, for its humility and humanity, and for the ingenuity it has inspired.
Like many other companies, we have spent much time reflecting on how Compugen will be remembered. Who we are, what we stand for, and what our legacy will be.
Through the solutions we cultivate, and with the people and practices we employ, we will have a positive, rippling impact on the world around us, each and every day."
