In celebration of Miro turning 10 this week we wanted to highlight 10 out of the box ways you’ve used Miro. We love hearing the ways Miro has helped you create and collaborate with your team but more and more we’re seeing Miro used for fun personal projects.

Over the past year, teams around the world sought new ways to collaborate, engage, and connect. Most of us have been trying to figure out how to translate the mainstays of our company’s in-person collaboration and planning — kickoffs, offsites, training, brainstorming — into virtual events. Underlying this process is the assumption that a virtual experience is less valuable, that it’s missing something that only in-person events can offer. But maybe that’s not true.
In Kenya, countless communities rely upon small vendors called Mama Mbogas (which literally means Mama Vegetables) to bring fresh food into their neighborhoods. Mama Mbogas operate small food stands in cities and rural communities and play a vital role in distributing produce from farmers to consumers. Despite their importance, Mama Mbogas have historically faced immense challenges in running their businesses.
At Blue Label Labs, we stand by select products like Miro because of their ability to enrich processes and furnish visual, collaborative tools that make our lives easier. We love using Slack for our day-to-day communications, but when it comes to intensive events like running design sprints, Miro is the centerpiece that brings our efforts together. It’s an excellent product, but it shines even brighter when effectively using plugins like Jira, which we will cover here.
An educator has one primary goal: to help their students comprehend the concepts that are taught.
