Under Cannon-Brookes’ leadership, Atlassian expanded its product line to include Confluence, a collaboration tool, and later acquired Trello, a popular project management application. These products, combined with Jira, created a comprehensive suite of tools that supported various aspects of project management and team collaboration.
Going Public and Achievements
Atlassian’s growth trajectory was meteoric. In December 2015, the company went public on the NASDAQ, with an initial public offering (IPO) that valued the company at $4.37 billion. This milestone marked Atlassian as one of the most successful tech companies to emerge from Australia. Cannon-Brookes’ and Farquhar’s stakes in the company made them billionaires, catapulting them into the global spotlight.
