Balsamiq Sponsorships Update for July 2020
Hi friends!
While it would be nice to see each other in person again, for the foreseeable future we at Balsamiq are making a conscious effort to exclusively support virtual events. We’re so fortunate we live in a time where this option is available to us!
Though it can be hard to stay home when the weather is warm, we hope you’ll prioritize your health and the health of those around you and choose to only participate in online conferences for now.
