Bump is officially an #Umbraco Gold Partner in Australia! 🇦🇺 Over the past 18 months we've been busy expanding and growing our presence "Down Under" from our base in Sydney – now we have reached the same level of Umbraco Partner status as we've had in the UK since 2021!

Great to catch up with the whole Bump team at #Umbraco #Codegarden!

As the Microsoft #MVPSummit and my time in Seattle 🇺🇸 comes to an end, I’m reflecting on all the amazing things I’ve seen this week, and the wonderful geeky conversations about the future of .NET, C#, AI, Azure, communities, and more. Returning to Sydney overflowing with ideas and a full heart! ❤️

On Friday, @umbraco.com Spark reminded us of the power of #community - as if we needed help remembering 🔥 Our very own Joe Glombek spoke about what a superpower an engaged, supportive and knowledgeable #tech network can be when it comes to growth and problem solving.

Our "Chief Bumpster" @callumbwhyte.bsky.social shared his expertise on building resilient applications and architectures at Programmable Sydney earlier today! He shared his over a decade of knowledge and the techniques we follow to build rock-solid solutions for our clients.

Want to get hands-on with the new #Umbraco AI extensions? I've made a video to show you how to get started, how to extend, and some initial thoughts: www.youtube.com/watch?v=fGcb...
