Mission Control, Magic Moments & strong partnerships – Our journey to Atlassian Team '25

What happens when the global Atlassian ecosystem comes together once a year? That's right: it gets loud, colorful, inspiring – and, above all, personal. Team '25 in Anaheim is more than just an event for catworkx. It was a stage for encounters, a place for new inspiration and another milestone for/in our partnership with Atlassian. Our team was right in the middle of it – and brought back lots of impressions, highlights and emotions.

In the afternoon, our “Mission Control” booth officially opened its doors. Space engineers (aka our team) welcomed visitors with demos, conversations, Polaroid photos, and a raffle. The response was huge – our booth quickly became a lively hub for community and exchange.

In the evening, more awards were presented: our colleagues were honored by METAinf as “Partner Engineer of the Year” and by Gliffy as “Rising Star Partner.” An evening cruise with Appfire – complete with dolphin sightings under the starry sky – brought the day to an almost magical close.

It wasn't just about new features, but about a shift in thinking: collaboration should become smarter, more connected, and smoother – with Atlassian as the platform for the future. We will highlight how we at catworkx evaluate these developments and integrate them into our solutions in separate blog posts.

While the keynote speeches continued to resonate, the action moved on to the booth – this time with a focus on depth and exchange. Metricus spoke about process optimization, Elementspresented innovations for Jira & Confluence, and Yasoon invited attendees to a brainstorming session on incident management.

The afternoon brought another highlight: our big NotePin raffle. An excited crowd gathered, the digital wheel of fortune spun, and there was cheering and clapping – an energetic moment full of joy.

In the evening, things quieted down a bit. It was time to take a deep breath, reflect, and mentally prepare for the last day of the conference.

The final day also had many valuable encounters in store. Deep dive sessions with Tempo took place at the booth, focusing on company-wide integrations and planning processes.

Numerous visitors stopped by one last time—to clarify open questions, say thank you, or simply to secure a final Polaroid. With a touch of sadness but a lot of satisfaction, the Mission Control equipment was finally packed up again.

In the evening, it was time to say aloha to the California Beach Bash. Even though the beach was missing, the relaxed atmosphere, summer sounds, and good vibes more than made up for it. There was dancing, laughter, celebration, and farewells.
