Giving these guests a Perfect 10

Hard to believe we're only a few weeks into the new year and already have a major highlight. It's that time we turned to Twitter Spaces for the ultimate Perfect 10: More than 10 consecutive conversations with leaders from spots like Lacework, Moov, and Webflow, covering everything from D&I to onboarding, Web3 to meetups, and all the goodness in between. Find the full recording here and keep an eye out for recaps tailored to your favorite topics.

And for a heads-up on our next big event, be sure to join us on Slack!

With great affection,
