Empowering Learning Teams to Share Knowledge at Scale
Mission
Empowering Teams Through Scalable Knowledge Sharing
At PlusPlus, we believe in a bottoms-up approach to learning—empowering teams to share knowledge, grow together, and innovate. Our mission is to transform how companies create, manage, and scale learning, combining the structure of an LMS with the flexibility of an LXP, ensuring that learning is continuous and impactful.
We recognize that learning is not one-size-fits-all. By bridging the formal structure of an LMS with the agility of peer-driven knowledge sharing, PlusPlus helps organizations create tailored learning experiences that scale across teams, driving both personal growth and business results.
How we started
The seeds of PlusPlus were planted when we saw a gap in traditional learning systems. LMS platforms were rigid, while flexible tools lacked formal structure. L&D professionals needed a solution that combined formal training with real-time knowledge sharing. Initially focused on technical teams, we quickly realized that these challenges exist across departments—from engineers to HR leaders and beyond.
Where we are
Today, PlusPlus is a comprehensive learning platform that serves L&D professionals across industries. By blending LMS rigor with LXP flexibility, we enable seamless management of formal training programs while fostering a culture of peer-to-peer learning. This dual approach helps teams continuously share knowledge and develop expertise while proving the ROI of learning programs through measurable impact on business and employee growth.
We’re proud to partner with companies like LinkedIn, Salesforce, and Netflix, helping them scale their learning programs while ensuring that L&D professionals can demonstrate the value of their programs to key stakeholders.
What’s next
As learning evolves, our mission remains: empowering L&D teams to design and deliver learning experiences that drive both personal development and business success. With PlusPlus, L&D managers have the tools to show the tangible impact of their programs, proving how they enable teams to grow and contribute to organizational goals.

ORIGINS
Pioneering Team Enablement
Brothers Marko & Aleksander Gargenta co-founded their first education technology company, Marakana, in 2001, which they later sold to Twitter in 2013. From within Twitter, Merakana expanded and evolved into what eventually became Twitter University, a highly-effective new methodology and tool set to onboard and develop engineers and technical teams. Realizing that the solution they created had the potential far beyond Twitter, they later co-founded PlusPlus in 2016 with the goal of creating the world’s most powerful team enablement platform.
Today, PlusPlus powers team enablement at dozens of enterprise companies including HubSpot, Slack, LinkedIn, and Roblox.
