First – THANK YOU for joining us at WebexOne – our premier, digital, collaboration event. What an amazing two days we just had – from revealing the all-new Webex, to hearing performances from Broadway Cares, to learning how much RuPaul loves Webex! But the best part of it all was the participation from our customers – more than 20 customers joined us to tell their stories and showcase the real-world innovations that happen with Webex!
