Our MVPs continue to bring value to Automation Anywhere and our global automation community through:

• Growing and leading community programs (user groups, dev evangelism, etc.)

They leverage speaking opportunities to share expertise, further elevating the community's understanding and fostering growth. Through these endeavors, they not only amplify the organization's reach but also cultivate valuable networking connections, enriching the partnership with our community and organization.

Anyone who is an Automation Anywhere customer and member of the Pathfinder Community can apply to participate in the MVP program. The goal is to find Pathfinder Community members excited about automation innovation, and those who are interested in actively contributing to the Pathfinder Community, its growth, and wellbeing This can include developers, automation leaders, citizen developers, business analysts, or any other individuals who play a constructive role within their automation program.

How long does a Most Valuable Pathfinder hold the title?

Our MVP program operates on an annual renewal cycle, ensuring continued commitment and contributions. Your status automatically renews if an MVP remains interested, active, and engaged. We value each Pathfinder Community member’s wellbeing and understand if priorities shift. Contributions, whether large or small, are deeply appreciated and make a significant impact on our community.

Can I lose my Most Valuable Pathfinder status?

MVP status is typically not permanent and may be subject to review. It's based on continued active participation and contribution to the community. A Pathfinder Community Program Leader will meet with MVPs quarterly to evaluate activities and engagement, and formal status will be evaluated annually.
