Happy Friday, Community Leaders!

Francisco here 👋 

Yesterday, Ruthie Berber and Community Leaders from NYC got together! The New York Chapter is alive and kicking 🙂 Enjoy the smiles below. We are grateful to our friends at Common Room, who sponsored this meetup!

Brian Oblinger shared this week's Free but important course: Community Measurement Fundamentals.

Garreth Wilson took the time to feed an AI bot with great community-building resources, and you can play with it here.

We crossed 200+ registrants for the Community-led World Summit, and we already have a few big brands interested in becoming sponsors and making this dream a reality! If you want to learn more, get in touch with me.

Replays from the Community Everywhere Summit are available here.

Community Leaders featured this week: Jenny Weigle, Drew Pontikis, Madeleine Milne, Mighty Max Pete, Gareth Wilson, Martha Essien, Rosie Sherry, Rich Millington, Pete Heslop, and our beloved Laura Zug!

As usual, perks and the best content of the week are below.
