Migrations MVP badge now live!

[#1]

Are you a Migrations MVP?! (or looking to become one?)

At Atlassian, we’re investing in our cloud platform and the tools your teams need to make the move. At the same time, we’re hearing more and more questions from you about the ins and outs of migrating to cloud.

So… drumroll please… we decided to help you level up your migrations expertise and to encourage even more participation in the Atlassian Cloud Migrations collection.

That’s why we’re announcing something brand new: the Migrations MVP Badge!

                                                     

You can earn this badge by achieving at least two of the following:

• Attending or hosting a Cloud Migrations-focused Leader Workshop, ACE Event or AMA (we've got lots of great events in the works, so stay tuned!)

• Answering 2 questions posted in the Atlassian Cloud Migrations collection

• Posting an article in the Atlassian Cloud Migrations collection

• Commenting on an article in the Atlassian Cloud Migrations collection

Let us know when you’ve completed these requirements in the comments on this post and we’ll get you a badge. The first 100 people who earn this badge will receive some extra-special Atlassian swag. Trust us when we say this prize will knock your socks off.

We can’t wait to see who our inaugural group of Migrations MVPs will be!

Hi @Elizabeth Howden ,

What was the time period for the contest? (to receive some extra-special Atlassian swag.)

Earning a Badge doesn't have any limited time. Right?

When will the winner be announced?

I think the answers to these questions will help everyone!

[Elizabeth Howden]

Hi @Soumyadeep Mandal - no limited time and multiple winners permitted! (like those of you who have gotten the badge so far). Our extra special swag should be in soon - as soon as it is, we'll send it to those of you who have earned the badge!

[Walter Buggenhout]
