The History

BcnEng’s Slack started as a solution for a communication problem between two ex-colleagues (Sergio Moya and Gonzalo Serrano) that worked in the same team in a Barcelona startup for years but parted ways for new jobs in November 2016. They wanted to keep being in touch as a group and found Slack was the solution.

Months passed, and the community kept growing slowly but steadily, till today, with more than 11K registered users and around 1.5K weekly active users.
