Happy 1st birthday to our KnowBe4 Community! We’re so excited to celebrate our community's first anniversary. It’s been filled with so many wholesome moments and learning opportunities.
From the beginning, our primary mission in building this community was to create a space for our customers to connect, learn and share. We wanted to create a space to get the inside scoop from the teams you may not have had direct contact with before.
These teams include Product Management, Events, Marketing, and, most recently, our UX team. We hope that you’re enjoying being an essential part of this community. And without further ado, let’s jump into some one-year highlights!
