Welcome to the first class of Veeam Legends 2023!

  It gives us great pleasure to announce the Legends class for the first half of 2023, as the Veeam Legends program, which follows a 6-month cycle for both intake and renewal, continues to provide recognition and opportunities to distinguished individuals in our community.The Veeam Legends program, which is among the top initiatives of Veeam Community, acknowledges individuals who actively participate in the Veeam R&D Forums, the Veeam community, and other Veeam platforms. This program, along with the comparable Veeam Vanguard Program, plays an important role in empowering data protection industry specialists who possess a strong passion for technology and innovation, and are enthusiastic about advancing their career while also contributing to the community by sharing their insights and experiences.Congratulations to the new and renewed legends for the first half of 2023! Albert Tedjadiputra  Albertwt (Veeam R&D Forums) Alex Heylin @alexheylin  Bertrand Castagnet @BertrandFR  B
