🚀 Introducing Startup Stories with Atlassian: Learn from startup founders and earn a badge!

[#1]

Hi Startups Community!

We are excited to launch a new series called Startup Stories with Atlassian.

In this series, we interview founders about their entrepreneurial journey, learn about the problems they are trying to solve, and explore how their teams are using Atlassian tools to grow and deliver value to their customers.

We shared Cloudflare’s story earlier this year at Team ‘24, where Atlassian’s Co-founder and Co-CEO Scott Farquhar spoke with Michelle Zatlyn, Co-founder, President, and COO of Cloudflare, about her startup journey with Atlassian.

Watch the video below to learn about how Cloudflare went from MVP to IPO!

Make sure to watch this post and follow the Startups Community Group as we will be sharing the latest founder story here:

It got me thinking about my own approach to pitching. Boosting your pitch isn’t just about selling an idea; it’s about building trust and showing how your solution creates real value. I’ve been working on refining mine, especially to explain technical ideas to non-tech audiences—harder than I thought!
