Announcing: The first Karbon Customer Council

We’re on a mission to build the world's best practice management solution for accounting firms, meet the needs of our customers and shape the future of the accounting industry. To help us achieve this, we have established the Karbon Customer Council (KCC).

6 Karbon staff members surrounding a table outdoors. 4 of them are sitting at the table, working from laptops. The other 2 are standing, looking over the others and engaged in conversations.

The council’s core purpose is to ensure Karbon is aligned with the needs of customers and the future direction of the industry. In addition to that, KCC members will provide advice and feedback on Karbon and key initiatives, and take part in industry events, webinars and discussions.
