The New Frontline of Biosecurity! In an era defined by biological uncertainty, the real threat isn’t just the next virus—it’s being unprepared for it. When illness silently creeps into the workplace, it can devastate operations, morale, and lives. The difference between chaos and control comes down to one thing: readiness. Chair Safely2Prosperity LLC, of understands this better than anyone. Dr. John Norris, Founder Executive and Where others see emergencies, Dr. Norris sees patterns. With decades of leadership at institutions like the FDA and HHS, he recognized the gaping hole between reactive public health responses and the predictive tools businesses and governments actually need. That realization led to the founding of Safely2Prosperity in 2022, a company dedicated to stopping disease spread before it starts. Powered by machine learning and grounded in rigorous science, Safely2Prosperity’s platform delivers early- warning alerts, actionable insights, and precise mitigation strategies. It turns invisible biological threats into manageable risks—much like how we already approach cyberattacks or financial fraud. But Dr. Norris isn’t building a product. He’s building a future. One where health is seen not just as a moral good, but as a pillar of national defense and economic stability. His philosophy is clear: “You can’t solve 21st- century health threats with 20th-century tools.” As the world braces for inevitable biological disruptions, forward-thinking leaders are turning to Dr. Norris. Because prevention is the new power—and Safely2Prosperity is showing us how to wield it. Lynn H.

The?Story?of The?Story?of DR. JOHN NORRIS A Leader “Transformatively” Reshaping Public Health, Population Health, and Biosecurity Preparedness Founder and Executive Chair Picture a global company on the verge of a product launch that suddenly faces an invisible threat. A small cluster of flu-like symptoms in one office turns into a full-blown crisis within days. Productivity tanks. Panic spreads faster than the virus itself. Lives are disrupted. Families are shaken. The company halts operations, possibly for months, and large sums of money are permanently lost—not because it had no warning (there are many current warnings in the US and dozens more in Africa), but because it had no advanced system in place and fully operational to respond with significant precision and effectiveness. Now, imagine the opposite. That same company, instead of reacting, predicts. Before the first employee feels sick, leadership receives real-time alarms (immediate aggressive action is required) and alerts (unless things change for the better, high-powered, commanding action soon will be required). Localized risk levels do not rise. Targeted mitigation strategies work. No shutdowns. No chaos. Just control. Safety. Business continuity. 8

This is the future that Dr. John Norris is designing in real-time. As Founder and Executive Chair of Safely2Prosperity LLC, Dr. Norris is tackling one of the most urgent and overlooked challenges of our era: how to manage deadly biological threats with the same level of intelligence, speed, and clarity as we do nuclear threats, cyberattacks, or financial fraud. With decades of experience spanning FDA leadership, policy reform, and enterprise-based health strategy, he brings a rare clarity to a complex problem—and the technical skills, knowledge, and methods—and the technological and scientific expertise, and processes capable of creating advanced tools, systems, and programs to solve it. But this story isn’t about pandemics, epidemics, or public fear of stealth attacks from national enemies, all significant risks and worthy of intense anxiety. It’s about systems thinking. About anticipating the gaps, connecting the dots, and building bridges long before the world realizes they’re needed. It’s about a leader who sees public and population health not just as moral imperatives but as core drivers of national security and defense, economic stability, and national and organizational resilience. So, how did John Norris become the mind behind one of the most innovative ML-powered platforms in disease-spread risk management today? And why are the world’s most forward-looking organizations paying close attention? Let’s explore the story of a leader quietly shaping a safer, brighter future for the US and its allies, especially those in Africa. 10
The Reason: “You can’t solve 21st-century health threats with 20th-century tools.” This is a guiding philosophy for Dr. Norris and the central reason he founded Safely2Prosperity in 2022 (it was ideated in 2020). As the pandemic unfolded, Dr. Norris observed a profound gap between what public health and population health agencies could manage and what public and private-sector organizations required of businesses to remain operational and effective in stopping the disease spread. It’s the “spread” that counts. Government systems, while well-intentioned, were built for mass-scale crises—not the nuanced, real-time decision-making needed by nations, Fortune 1000 companies, universities, and healthcare providers. Dr. Norris, armed with decades of public health and population health experience—including transformational or advisory roles with The Joint Commission (TJC), the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)—recognized that an enterprise-grade, science-based, biosecurity threat risk-management platform was missing. Thus, based on this vision, Safely2Prosperity was born. Cover?Story Cover?Story www.visionarycios.com | 11
Cover?Story Cover?Story The Origin: “I saw the difference between how nations and businesses operate during a health crisis, and I knew there was a better way.” A New Solution: “The future belongs to companies that can adapt, adjust, and respond quickly, thoughtfully, and aggressively to changing threats without shutting down.” Dr. Norris’s path to transformative innovation was paved by years of service in the nation’s highest public health offices, either as a leader or an advisor to leaders. For example, he contributed directly to the national strategy for managing nuclear outbreaks such as the Chornobyl disaster. His work with the US FDA saw him co-leading national thinking in health and healthcare IT, bioinformatics, precision medicine, and medical product informatics—an experience that equipped him with a unique understanding of how science, data, and policy must align for effective responses during health crises. At its core, Safely2Prosperity is a software-as-a- service (SaaS) platform operated within an advanced biosecurity program that helps large enterprises, such as governments, government agencies, businesses, universities, and health systems, manage infectious disease threats—and manifestations of those threats—in real-time. It provides customized, science-driven guidance and decision support to help organizations protect their people, including their families, and unselfishly maintain operations. In his own words, “I saw the difference between how government and business operate during a health crisis—and I knew there was a better way. Government agencies and businesses need fast, adaptive, and flexible tools based on real science, not bureaucracy.” What makes S2P different is its proactive, data- driven approach and virtual solution. It’s a biosecurity data management company that produces, organizes, analyzes, and reports up to millions of data points daily for each customer. Instead of waiting for federal mandates or one- size-fits-all public health policies, S2P empowers organizations with the tools and intelligence to make decisions tailored to the enterprise’s specific situations. This fusion of insider knowledge and entrepreneurial drive set the foundation for Safely2Prosperity, a company that’s not just reacting to pandemics, epidemics, and local bio-outbreaks but preparing nations, agencies, and businesses to thrive in their midst. Imagine if your nation or business competitor was down or at low productivity during an epidemic, and yours was in great shape and fully operational. Both immediate and long-term gains in customers would be yours. 12
Cover?Story Cover?Story As Dr. Norris puts it, “The future belongs to nations, agencies, and companies that can adapt, adjust, and respond quickly to changing threats without shutting down. We give them the power to do exactly that.” His passion is evident in interviews: “The science matters. The people matter. Nations and businesses matter. And when we listen to all four, we create solutions that actually work.” The platform uses proprietary algorithms, real-time data feeds, and curated science-based protocols to help leadership teams make thoughtful, insightful, and safe decisions about workplace operations, including vaccination, testing, therapeutics, isolation, quarantine status, and related policies, and more. From nations and industrial giants to major healthcare systems and top universities, clients are turning toward S2P for its blend of technological sophistication and scientific rigor. This commitment to listening and learning has earned S2P not only market traction in the US and Africa but also deep credibility with stakeholders. A market study of 50 senior executives found that they trust that S2P isn’t selling generic solutions—it’s providing tailored strategies grounded in the latest public and population health research and operational expertise. Building the Future: “The next great frontier in public and population health isn’t regulation. The FDA and the Joint Commission have this well under control. It’s creating, installing, operating, and supporting transformative innovation.” The Pandemic sparked: “That’s a false choice—nations and businesses shouldn’t have to pick between safety (closing for months) and survival (remaining cautiously operational).” Unlike many pandemic-response startups that emerged in crisis and faded with time, Safely2Prosperity was built with longevity in mind. Dr. Norris and his team deliberately designed the platform to be scalable, secure, and adaptable to future bio-threats. With a keen eye on the future of workplace and home space health, they are already exploring ways to expand service offerings to address a broader range of health risks, including chronic disease management, mental health considerations, and the risk management application of occupational health standards. Dr. Norris shares that one of his most significant motivations came from watching countless nations and businesses forced to choose between protecting people and remaining operational, at enormous societal and economic cost. “That’s a false choice,” he says. “With the right tools, you don’t have to shut down to stay safe.” His solution? Bring public and population health expertise directly to enterprise decision-makers. Safely2Prosperity does just that—bridging the gap between public-sector strategies and private-sector realities. Dr. Norris says, “In coming years, bio-preparedness to prevent, mitigate, and or control the spread of deadly infectious disease attacks might save millions of lives and businesses in the US and globally. And we cannot forget about not only preventing deaths but also preventing permanent harm to millions more. And all the personal and system financial expenses—and the costs of avoidable physical, mental, psychological harm, and pain and suffering for them and their families.” What began as a rapid-response idea during the early days of COVID-19 has since evolved into a robust, scalable system—and an entire Biosecurity Program. Today, the platform is not only designed to manage pandemics, epidemics, and local bio-outbreaks. It is also being expanded to address other health threats, including seasonal flu, RSV, pneumonia, and future unknown pathogens. Serving with Purpose: “The science matters. The people matter. And when we listen to both and are thoughtful and insightful, we create transformative solutions that work.” The Human Side of Leadership: “Leadership isn’t about having all the answers—it’s about asking the right questions and listening carefully to the answers.” Dr. Norris is a firm believer that leadership begins with listening to experts, to data, and to people—and to prospective nations and businesses as they express their real needs. At S2P, this principle informs every product decision and every client interaction. He fosters a culture that values accuracy, agility, and trust—essentials when dealing with something as sensitive and consequential as public and population health. Despite his impressive credentials, Dr. Norris remains grounded. His leadership style is one of humility, clarity, and mission focus. He attributes much of his success to the mentors and colleagues he’s worked with throughout his career. From his time in the Army and the private sector to his pivotal roles in government, academia, and business, each chapter has shaped his unique approach to leadership in the entrepreneurial sphere. 14
He’s a lifelong learner, constantly reading, questioning, and adapting. “Leadership isn’t about having all the answers,” he says. “It’s about asking the right questions, listening carefully to the answers, building the right team, and never losing sight of the mission—and having patience.” His advice to aspiring leaders in public and population health and technology? “Find a problem worth solving. Then surround yourself with people smarter than you, listen to them, and never stop learning and working hard.” Final Thoughts Dr. John Norris stands as a rare blend of visionary, scientist, and strategist within many disciplines. And he always “integrates and connects the dots between them.” His work at Safely2Prosperity is reshaping how we think about health crises—not just as disruptions to endure but as challenges we can proactively, aggressively, and analytically manage. As we look to the future, leaders like Dr. Norris remind us that “preparedness” is not just a policy; it’s a mandate and critical practice. Dr. Norris is always searching for seamless integration and collaboration where each player's passion is aroused. Recognition of What Matters: “We’re not just building transformative technology—we’re building trust and readiness for what’s next.” Dr. Norris’s contributions have not gone unnoticed. From helping shape national pandemic policy to transforming how private organizations prepare for and manage health crises, his impact is far-reaching. In 2025, as he and his teammates continue to expand Safely2Prosperity’s reach and capabilities, his recognition as one of the Most Visionary Business Leaders to Watch feels not only appropriate but inevitable. His whole career has been about being a “transformative change agent in health and healthcare IT and risk management.” Dr. Norris says, “In coming years, bio-preparedness to prevent, mitigate, and or control the spread of deadly infectious disease pathogen attacks might save millions of lives and businesses in the US and globally. Plus, it can play a role in not only preventing deaths but also preventing permanent harm. And in preventing all the wasted financial expenses and costs of avoidable physical, mental, psychological pain and suffering. His most significant current concern is that S2P has a limited capacity to enroll nations, businesses, and people quickly enough to save all the lives S2P hopes to save. Accordingly, if a nation's/company's workers/employees and their family members aren't already enrolled in S2P's "Preparedness Program" and the next deadly bio-outbreak occurs, they will be required to get a place in line with many others who are also unenrolled and frightened. Under his leadership, S2P isn’t just a pandemic, epidemic, or local bio- outbreak tech company—it’s a movement toward more innovative, safer, and more sustainable health and healthcare systems and user readiness. And in a world where health threats are becoming more complex and frequent, that kind of vision is exactly what we need. Accordingly, it could take months in the middle of a calamity before their people are enrolled and protected by S2P’s virtual solution. Biosecurity for them will have been neglected, and their leaders likely will be held accountable. With him and his teammates leading the charge, the path to safely and successfully overcoming any public and population health challenge, either nature-made or human-manufactured, is becoming clearer every day. There’s only one Dr. John Norris and one Safely2Prosperity. www.visionarycios.com | 15
LeBron was born on December 30, 1984, in Akron, Ohio. He was raised by his mother, Gloria James, who worked hard to support him. They faced many challenges, including moving a lot and struggling financially, but LeBron found comfort and passion in basketball. LeBron went to St. Vincent-St. Mary High School, where his basketball skills quickly made him famous. He helped his team win three state championships and became known across the country for his talent. His hard work and leadership on the court made him stand out, even against older players. Although basketball was his main focus, his time in high school taught him important lessons about discipline and hard work, which helped shape the player he would later become. 20
LeBron James’ career is filled with multiple prestigious awards and achievements that highlight his extraordinary talent and impact on the basketball world. Here are some of his most notable achievements: NBA Championships 4× NBA Champion (2012, 2013, 2016, 2020) NBA Most Valuable Player (MVP) 4× NBA MVP (2009, 2010, 2012, 2013) NBA All-Star Selections 17× NBA All-Star (as of 2025) NBA Finals MVP 4× NBA Finals MVP (2012, 2013, 2016, 2020) Olympic Gold Medals 2× Olympic Gold Medal (2008, 2012) All-NBA Team Selections 18× All-NBA Team (as of 2025) NBA All-Defensive Team Selections Multiple-time NBA All-Defensive Team www.visionarycios.com | 23
Family: LeBron is married to Savannah James; they have been in a relationship since high school. They have three children: LeBron Jr. (Bronny), Bryce, and Zhuri. He spends his time with his family and shares images on social media. Being a father and a role model is crucial to him. Philanthropy: LeBron is of helping nature. In 2018, he opened the I PROMISE School in Akron for kids who need extra support. The school provides free tuition, meals, and help for students and their families. He believes in giving children a chance to succeed. Business Ventures: LeBron is a business-minded person. He runs his company, SpringHill Company, which is involved in movies, TV shows, and other projects. He has also made multiple deals with giant brands like Nike, showcasing how he has turned his fame into business success. Social Justice: LeBron voices up on the social issues of racial inequality and education. He believes everyone has the right to learn, grow, and succeed. Regarding this, he has worked on projects like the More Than a Vote campaign, which encourages African-American communities to vote. 1. 2. 3. 4. Everyone is aware of LeBron’s multi-time champion, finals MVP, league MVP, all-time scoring leader, and a lot of highlight moments. But there are some things that people are not aware of; take a look at 10 of them: He is both left-handed and right-handed. When he plays basketball, he shoots the ball with his right hand, but when he is outside of the court, he uses his left hand for eating, writing, signing autographs, etc. LeBron has made multiple investments and one of his investments is related to football or soccer. He has also invested a reported sum of $6.5 million to buy a two percent stake in Liverpool. 24
LeBron has split his basketball career into two jersey numbers, 6 and 23. 23 because of fellow NBA legend Michael Jordan, and 6 carries two reasons: His first child, Bronny, was born on Oct 6, 2004, while his second child was born on June 14, 2007, which is the sixth month of the year. LeBron and Jordan are the greatest players of all time remembered in the history of basketball. At the same time, they share the same record, which they achieved in the 20-year age difference. They have won the gold medal in the Olympics, an NBA MVP award, and a finals MVP. Jordan did this in 1992, and 20 years later LeBron repeated the same (2012). LeBron has created a family with his wife Savannah and has three children together. The interesting thing is they started dating when they were in high school and have been in a relationship since then. They are the prime examples who explain the meaning of love. LeBron has starred in the sequel to Space Jam, which was released in 2021, while he has been a producer in a few basketball-related documentaries. Conclusion Starting from his humble beginnings in Akron, Ohio, to becoming an NBA legend and global icon, he has shown what can be achieved through hard work, dedication, and a commitment to excellence. His story continues to inspire athletes and non- athletes alike, reminding us how greatness not only comes from talent but from perseverance and the will to create change. www.visionarycios.com | 25

Thousands of years ago, the invention of the wheel changed the course of human history. A simple circular object became the foundation of civilization, allowing us to expand our reach beyond imagination. But what started as a wooden disc has since evolved into a marvel of engineering—sleek machines that define innovation, speed, and reliability. And today, two names stand at the pinnacle of this evolution—Toyota vs Honda. Both brands have shaped the global automotive industry, revolutionizing how we drive and perceive cars. However, the battle between them is a clash of philosophies. But which one truly rules the road? As we explore their histories, innovations, and impact, one question remains—if you had to choose only one, which brand would you trust with your journey? Toyota vs Honda: A Rivalry for the Ages Toyota Honda Founding Year 1937 1948 Annual Global Sales 10.4 million 4.3 million Market Cap $290 billion $51 billion Toyota Motor Corporation, founded by Kiichiro Toyoda in 1937, was Japan’s response to the growing demand for automobiles. The company introduced the Toyota Production System (TPS), a revolutionary manufacturing approach that emphasized efficiency, waste reduction, and high-quality output. By the 1990s, Toyota had become the world’s largest automaker, a title it continues to hold, producing over 10.4 million vehicles in 2023 alone. 36
In contrast, Honda Motor Co. was founded by Soichiro Honda in 1948, with a vision centered on innovation and engineering excellence. Unlike Toyota’s conservative approach, Honda embraced experimentation, leading to the development of the VTEC engine, one of the most celebrated advancements in automotive engineering. Today, Honda remains one of the top global automakers, producing over 4.3 million vehicles annually while maintaining its dominance in the motorcycle industry. www.visionarycios.com | 37

Toyota Honda • 80% of vehicles still on the road after 15+ years • Among the top 10 longest- lasting vehicles (iSeeCars) Reliability & Longevity • Lower maintenance costs • Engaging drive quality For decades, Toyota vs Honda has been a battleground for reliability. Both automakers are known for building vehicles that withstand the test of time, but Toyota has consistently ranked higher in dependability studies. Toyota’s Edge: With models like the Corolla and Camry, Toyota holds an impressive record, with over 80% of its vehicles still on the road after 15 years. The brand focuses on simple, time-tested engineering that minimizes failures. Honda’s Strength: Honda cars, particularly the Accord and Civic, are known for their robust engines and engaging drive quality. A study by iSeeCars found that Honda models are among the top 10 longest-lasting vehicles, but slightly behind Toyota. • • Toyota vs Honda in reliability? Toyota wins this round with a slightly better track record for longevity and lower maintenance costs. Modern cars are not just about performance but also about the safety and technology they offer. Toyota vs Honda in this category is a tight race, as both brands invest heavily in research and development. Toyota Safety Sense (TSS): Toyota’s advanced safety system includes features like adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, and pedestrian detection, now standard on most models. Honda Sensing: Honda counters with its suite of features, including road departure mitigation and collision mitigation braking. According to IIHS, Honda and Toyota frequently receive Top Safety Pick+ ratings. Winner? It’s a tie. Both brands prioritize safety, offering cutting-edge driver-assist technologies that protect passengers on the road. www.visionarycios.com | 39
Hybrid & Electric Revolution: Who Is Leading? Performance and Driving Experience: Who Wins the Thrill? For driving enthusiasts, performance plays a crucial role. Honda, with its motorsport heritage, takes a different approach compared to Toyota’s reliability-focused engineering. As the world transitions to sustainable transportation, Toyota vs Honda has extended to the hybrid and electric vehicle (EV) space. Toyota’s Track Record: While Toyota is known for its dependable daily drivers, it has its performance stars—the Toyota GR Supra and Gr86. Toyota’s Hybrid Dominance: With the launch of the Toyota Prius in 1997, Toyota pioneered the hybrid revolution. Today, its hybrid models, including the RAV4 Hybrid and Camry Hybrid, continue to outsell competitors, with Toyota selling over 3 million hybrid vehicles annually. Honda’s Precision Engineering: Honda’s performance-oriented models, including the Honda Civic Type R and Acura NSX, showcase superior handling and high-revving engines, making them favorites among car enthusiasts. In terms of driving excitement, Honda wins with its more engaging and performance-focused lineup. Honda’s Hybrid & EV Strategy: While Honda has been slower to expand its hybrid and EV lineup, its Honda Insight and Accord Hybrid have gained traction. However, Toyota’s early lead has given it a stronghold in the market. Market Impact and Global Presence Both brands dominate global markets, but Toyota vs Honda in terms of sheer numbers tells a different story: Toyota’s Global Reach: Toyota remains the world’s best-selling car brand, with a market cap of $290 billion and sales exceeding 10 million vehicles annually. Toyota vs Honda in the green revolution? Toyota is ahead, with a more diverse lineup and stronger global sales in hybrid technology. Honda’s Niche Strategy: While Honda sells fewer cars (4.3 million in 2023), it dominates the motorcycle sector, making it the largest motorcycle manufacturer in the world. Toyota vs Honda in global dominance? Toyota takes the lead with its overwhelming market share and global influence. 40
Customer Reviews and Public Perception No rivalry is complete without hearing from the customers who drive these vehicles daily. Toyota vs Honda has long been debated in user reviews and surveys. As we look at Toyota vs Honda, the rivalry remains as fierce as ever. Toyota dominates in reliability, hybrid technology, and global market share, while Honda excels in performance, engineering, and affordability. Toyota Owners Say: Toyota drivers consistently praise the brand’s reliability, low maintenance costs, and high resale value. The Toyota Camry and RAV4 are particularly lauded for their longevity. But in the end, the answer isn’t as simple as numbers on a chart. Some drivers swear by Toyota’s indestructibility, while others crave the engaging experience of a Honda. The road ahead is long, and this rivalry is far from over. Honda Enthusiasts Highlight: Honda owners appreciate the brand’s sporty handling, refined interiors, and fuel- efficient performance. The Civic and CR- V are among the most loved models. Who do you think is the true champion—Toyota or Honda? Both brands have earned strong reputations, but the choice ultimately depends on what drivers prioritize—Toyota’s steadfast dependability or Honda’s engaging drive quality. www.visionarycios.com | 41
