What it takes to be a Champion

Frequently asked questions

How long am I a Champion for?

It’s a yearly cycle. We check in once a year to keep things fresh and make sure it’s still a good fit.

Can I nominate someone else? Can I nominate myself?

Both. Know someone doing great work in this space? Point them our way. Think it’s you? Go ahead and apply.

Do I need to already have an online presence?

Not at all. Some Champions are already out there sharing. Others are doing excellent work quietly and just haven’t found their platform yet. That’s exactly where we come in.

Do I need to be a Port customer?

No. But you should be using Port, and genuinely into agentic SDLC and the AI software factory space.

When can I apply?

Applications are open November 2026 through the end of December. The Class of 2027 gets announced when the program launches in January 2027, and applications stay open on a rolling basis after that.
