Hub Happenings

Hub 2.0 – The Hub is moving to lightning!

The Salesforce.org Power of Us Hub is transitioning to Lightning in early April!

We hosted a 4-part webinar series during the month prior to the transition to highlight new features of Hub 2.0. We provided demos, overviews, and explanations to help enable you all — our amazing community! — as we prepare for the Power of Us Hub’s transition to Lightning. View the recordings:

Each webinar was followed by an Ask Me Anything (AMA) in the Hub 2.0 Post-Webinar AMA Group in the Power of Us Hub. Check out the group to see what questions and conversation arose after each webinar — great community conversation!

Stay tuned for more information about this transition coming soon. Please use the topic #Hub Feedback to share feedback throughout this transition. We invite you to join us on this journey as we prep for Hub 2.0!
