On July 17, 2025, Softgile, an official Atlassian Platinum Solution Partner, made history by organizing the first-ever in-person Atlassian Community Event (ACE) in Georgia. The event, held in the heart of Tbilisi, brought together local professionals, IT teams, and Atlassian enthusiasts for a day of shared learning, networking, and innovation.

Organized by community leaders and official Atlassian partners like Softgile, these events foster open discussion, hands-on learning, and stronger regional collaboration.
For Georgia, the ACE Tbilisi marked a significant milestone, it was the first time the local Atlassian community gathered offline to learn directly from experts and global contributors.
