Widen Quarterly Newsletter: Winter 2023

Hello friends and happy 2023! We hope your January is off to a great start. We know we’re only a month in but if you’re anything like us, things are already in full swing. 

To start, we ushered in the new year with a new CEO. We’re thrilled to announce that Stephen Reny has taken the reins as President and CEO of Acquia. Learn more about Steve and his new role in our recent press release.

Before we get too far into 2023, let’s spend a minute reflecting on 2022. Each year, Acquia co-founder and CTO, Dries Buytaert, takes a look back at Acquia's milestones, as well as things that happened in the industry at large. Read his 2022 reflections on his blog.

With so much happening, it’s hard to fill you in on everything, but we’re definitely going to try! Read on to see what you should be on the lookout for from Acquia and Widen this quarter. 

Happy New Year,  
- The Widen team
