We have a lot content on our board. 

should we be concerned about maintaining and accessing our intellectual property? what steps to expect from Miro? we are already having difficulty paying the team fare.

Let me remind you that people with different political views live in Russia.

Hello @Colleen Curtis,

thank you for your answer. Could you you please clarify about this item from the blog https://miro.com/blog/miro-reaction-war-in-ukraine/:

  • Complying with all current sanctions, and will comply with all future regulations and restrictions from the international community. We are suspending licenses for any customer on international sanctions lists.

What does it mean for licenses? Is it refer to all Russian companies or only to state companies?

 

Thank you in advance!
