Happy Wednesday, Community!


We are getting super excited about bbcon 2021. Did you know that 75+ session speakers this year are ALSO members of our very own Community.


We wanted to take a moment to recognize everyone who will be speaking this year at bbcon 2021. You can identify them by the speaker badge on their profile pages. We also created a discussion in the bbcon forum featuring all of them by name and giving them an opportunity to introduce themselves, their organization, and tell us a little about their sessions.


You can read the entire thread HERE in Community!
