At Camunda, we’re incredibly fortunate to have a vibrant and engaged community. It’s no secret that our community is a core part of our journey. We appreciate every single member, but some individuals consistently go above and beyond to support others—sharing knowledge and expertise, and contributing to the inclusivity and warmth that make our community unique.
To celebrate our most active members, we created the Camunda Champion Program. This initiative recognizes our top community leaders and enables them to continue sharing their knowledge and helping others.
This year marks our sixth cohort of Camunda Champions. We received applications from community members worldwide, and we thank each of you for applying. If you weren’t selected this time, we encourage you to apply again in the future!
With that, we’re thrilled to extend a warm welcome to our new Champions joining us this year! We’re equally excited for those returning Champions who continue to lead the way and embody what the Camunda community stands for. To those who are stepping down, we offer our heartfelt thanks for your invaluable contributions.
What it means to be a Champion
 | “To me, becoming a Champion means sharing my passion for Camunda in a way that energizes everyone around me. When I talk about Camunda, my enthusiasm inspires others and ignites their curiosity. It’s about being a driving force that encourages others to explore the possibilities and benefits of Camunda. My goal is to foster that spark of curiosity and motivation, helping others to see the potential for transformation through the power of Camunda.” —Maria Alish, new Champion. Poland, IBA Group/ IBA Poland |
