- Founder-led agency outreach: LinkedIn outreach to agency founders in the HubSpot ecosystem began in May, and outreach to 12 existing HubSpot agency partner contacts is complete. These conversations feed into the Agency Trial.

A full redesign is under way on the development site: phases 1 to 3 (new design system, consolidated redirects, new global header, footer and 404 page) were completed in August, phase 4 (homepage) in September, and phase 5 (internal pages) is in progress. The new design will go live once all pages are complete.
