“The rise of AI and cloud-based, remote working has transformed the traditional workspace” explains Charlie Naughton-Rumbo, CISO at LeftBrain and host of today’s event. He goes on: “How can this new breed of agile, hybrid, technical teams work together, write together, and creatively play together? We’ve found the answer is Notion”.

LeftBrain recently became the first Notion channel partner in EMEA and is now consequently hosting the first-ever EMEA partner event. Featured speakers include Ciarán Doyle (Solution Engineering Leader EMEA at Notion) and Frances Odera Matthews (Founder of The Notion Bar).

There is no doubt about what Frances calls the “Big Notion Energy” in the room, as the speakers give an account of the transformative power of Notion for creative professionals. First, Ciarán explores what knowledge actually means for work, unpacking how Notion’s connected workspace can save time and deliver higher-quality projects. He also delves into how AI is changing the game and shares exclusive insights into upcoming features for Notion users.

Frances discusses her work as a Certified Notion Consultant and design thinker, giving examples of how Notion is used by her clients and the broader Notion community. She shares case studies that demonstrate Notion’s use for document design, passive income, and lead and retention magnets.

Charlie then returns to the stage to host a Q&A with Lucas Jansen, Information Security Analyst at LeftBrain, who has recently used Notion to create a system for tracking clients’ information security controls and technologies, leading to LeftBrain’s ISO 9001 certification.

The event concludes with a Q&A session, ending on an upbeat note from David A. Karlström, Channel Partner Lead EMEA at Notion. He remarks, “This pilot channel partner scheme is just the starting point; we’re looking for other likeminded partners across the world. The energy we have in the room today, if I go anywhere in the world, I’m sure I will meet community members or partners with the same enthusiasm. The future is bright; we just need to get to work.”
