In 2020, Europe was the fastest growing region for
cross-country collaboration, with double the file shares
in February 2021 compared to the same month one year
ago.

The team is also trying to share more openly, which
translates to sharing work with a broader audience.
“Rather than hosting a gigantic meeting, we have
started recording our design reviews and sharing them
out with notes so that folks can watch them on their
own time,” Alastair says. “These practices help us level
the playing field and become more nimble and inclusive
designers.”

As we pass the one year mark of working remotely at
Figma, there’s so much to reflect on. Here, Growth Data
Scientist Wendy Lu shares how an experiment to enable
remote collaboration kicked off a larger workstream to
understand changes in collaboration more broadly.

In addition to more non-designers and viewers
engaging in a more collaborative design process, we
also observed that more teams started collaborating in
Figma earlier in the file lifecycle. We measured "time to
collaboration" based on the number of days between
file creation date and the first time a collaborator
(someone other than the file creator) opens the file,
within a 90 day period.

Most importantly, being able to work together in one
file has meant feeling less like a remote workforce, and
more like a team.
