Bonjour, Paris! HubSpot today announced that its third office in Europe and ninth globally has officially opened at 277 Rue Saint-Honoré in Paris, France. Tonight, HubSpot will mark the opening with an event that celebrates the customers, partners and employees who have contributed to the company's growth in the region.

In 2015, HubSpot opened a small office in Portsmouth, New Hampshire because, while working with a technical agency in the area, we quickly realized that Portsmouth is home to talented people who are passionate about helping customers. In just a few years, the team has grown by over 600%, turning the small office into a bustling one with best-in-show support and services teams who help our customers grow better.

It’s no secret that Berlin is one of the fastest-growing tech cities in Europe. In fact, a startup is founded every 20 minutes in the German capital. A survey HubSpot commissioned in 2016 found similar results with the vast majority of respondents identifying the city as a burgeoning hub for startups and tech companies. To solidify our support in the DACH market, HubSpot opened its Berlin office in 2017, initially committing to creating 75 jobs to meet the rising demand for HubSpot’s software solutions.

At HubSpot, we view our diversity initiatives as business-critical. We’re committed to making HubSpot more inclusive as we scale and grow – both because we know diverse teams perform better, but also because we believe it’s the right thing to do for our customers, partners, community, and values as an organization. To continue strengthening that commitment, we’re pleased to announce that HubSpot has welcomed Jabes Rojas as Director of Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging.

We’re excited to announce that Anne-Catrin Sallaba, a versatile leader with more than fifteen years of management experience in EMEA, will join HubSpot as Senior Manager, Customer Success in the DACH region. Based in HubSpot’s Berlin office, Anne-Catrin will be responsible for leading the team towards continued success in customer happiness, working closely with the company’s EMEA headquarters in Dublin.

Great Place to Work published their 2018 list of the Best Workplaces for Parents and we’re honored that HubSpot made the list thanks to employee reviews and feedback. To determine the Best Workplaces for Parents list, Great Place to Work® compared parents' and non-parents' responses representing more than 5 million employees on more than 60 survey questions anonymously rating their employers.

Great Place to Work and FORTUNE have honored HubSpot as one of the 2018 Best Workplaces for Women. The ranking considered more than 540,000 employee surveys from Great Place to Work certified companies and evaluated their experience at the company. These included the extent to which employees, particularly women, trust leaders, the respect with which people are treated, the fairness of workplace decisions, and how much camaraderie there is among the team. Rankings are based on employees’ feedback and reward companies who best include all employees, and where women have equally great experiences as employees of other genders, no matter who they are or what they do for the organization. We’re excited to announce that HubSpot took the #18 spot on the list thanks to employee reviews and feedback.

Today we’re excited to announce that HubSpot has appointed Christian Kinnear as Vice President and Managing Director, EMEA. Christian joined HubSpot Dublin in October 2015 as Director of Sales, where he was responsible for coordinating the company’s sales strategy across key regions. Quickly proving his ability to be a great cross-functional leader, Christian has served as HubSpot’s EMEA Managing Director for the last three years.

Whether going on a tropical holiday or signing off for a staycation, nothing beats the feeling of turning on your out of office email responder. The problem is, we aren’t doing it enough.

It’s no secret that HubSpot Dublin (fondly known as DubSpot) is rapidly growing. In 2016, HubSpot announced a commitment to hiring an additional 320 Dublin-based employees over three years.

Earlier this year, DubSpot was named a Best Workplace by Great Place To Work Ireland and unveiled the new product and engineering floor.
