From Classrooms 👨🏻‍🎓👩🏻‍🎓 to Communities 👥: My Unconventional Way of Growing KNIME Community in In...

Many people ask me how KNIME Community Indonesia continues to grow. The answer is actually quite simple: I don’t wait for people to discover KNIME, I bring KNIME to where people already are.

Instead of focusing only on online campaigns, I spend time visiting universities, student communities, workshops, bootcamps, and industry events across Indonesia. Every training session becomes an opportunity to introduce no-code/low-code data science and show how KNIME can help turn curiosity into real skills.

One of my favorite moments is at the end of a session when participants create their KNIME Community accounts right away and join the global community together. Seeing a room full of new members taking their first step into the KNIME ecosystem never gets old.

Sometimes growing a community isn’t about running bigger marketing campaigns. Sometimes it’s about having meaningful conversations, sharing knowledge freely, and helping one person at a time discover what’s possible.

Every new member, every question asked, every workflow shared, and every success story contributes to a larger mission: building a stronger KNIME ecosystem in Indonesia.

The journey continues, one classroom, one workshop, and one future KNIME’er at a time.
