    About the Group
    Presentations & Whiteboards is a key group in Design Experience, responsible for those two doctypes. Working alongside the other Visual Worksuite doctypes. Presentations & Whiteboards has had an extraordinary year of growth with most of our key metrics hitting all time highs.

The on-going mission is to become the #1 platform in the world for storytelling and collaboration.
