Hello! Community Pros 😊

The CMX Thrive just around the corner and on their end delivering a ton of workshops for the day before the event (just announced), it's time to warm up our luggage and put our heads in that unique stage coming back after 2+ years of the pandemic.

We got David Spinks back from his sabbatical (4 months count as sabbatical?) and shared their feelings about the event on Twitter.

And hot of the press, we got notified that Noele Flowers just left her position as Community Education Manager at Commsor.

After the initial housekeeping, let's move on with what happened with the community industry this week!

We are exploring the idea of hosting a regular monthly meetup with a few expert talks and AMA sessions. (more news soon!)

Reply if it sounds interesting to you!

💌 With love Francisco and Led by Community Team.

Crikey. How many people decided to stop working at Commsor today?
I wonder if in the years to come we'll think it's odd that a company with very few customers and a product no-one seems to have seen raised $50m at a $500m valuation. 👀
