"I said I wouldn't cry," he joked before getting emotional.

"You can't have innovation without creation, so finally, I want to thank my best friend, my favourite collaborator — my wife, Jessica, at home, who's watching," he said. "Honey, I can't wait to see our greatest creation yet. Don't worry, Daddy's heading home right now to innovate by learning how to change a poopy diaper and get my swaddle on."
