Happy Wednesday to You, Friends and Community Leaders 😊
Many things are happening in the space:
Brian Oblinger is launching something soon! (He invited 100 people to the launch event; don’t worry, we will be there and share the news here.)
We are launching our events in Asia Zone, and the very first one is available to RSVP: Navigating the Future of Communities in the World of AI, hosted by Akash Agrawal, Community Director, Asia. By the way, the time still works perfectly for Europe and UK Community Builders!
Last month, we got 35 community builders who saved a seat for our Lightning Networking Event! You can click the image below to RSVP for the one happening next week! Limited seats are available.
Anais, from uscreen wrote an article with 30+ Community Engagement Strategies for 2023. Totally worth reading!
Orbit keeps building up on the Champions or Contributors, and now we have: What is a contributor program? Good takeaways!

On Twitter this week…
This a reminder that we're in the 'Community Everywhere' era now.
Community strategies which try to persuade everyone to visit a single platform are out of date.
In the modern era, we want to support all our audiences all the time.
