Broadcom has outlined its community programs for 2026, showing how VMware professionals can stay connected, build visibility, and deepen their technical involvement across the ecosystem. The company points to the Broadcom Community as the main hub for product forums, technical documents, ideas, blogs, rewards, and daily peer-to-peer collaboration.
The post also highlights several key programs around that core platform. vExpert remains the flagship recognition program for people who contribute through blogging, speaking, podcasting, forum participation, scripting, videos, and VMUG leadership. VMware {code} continues to support developers and automation-focused users with APIs, PowerCLI resources, labs, study groups, challenges, and hackathons. VMUG is again positioned as the local and in-person extension of the community through chapters, meetups, and events.
Broadcom also emphasizes official blogs, RSS subscriptions, advocacy tools, podcasts, and the Broadcom Rewards program as part of the 2026 community strategy. For VMware admins, architects, and content creators, that means there are still multiple ways to stay engaged, grow a professional profile, and get more value out of participation beyond just following product announcements.
As of February 2026, the landscape includes the unified Broadcom Community (evolving from VMTN), flagship programs like vExpert and VMware {code}, local extensions via VMUG, podcasts, official blogs with RSS feeds, influencer-style advocacy, and dedicated social channels for staying in the loop.
