On October 16 – 18 at the beautiful InterContinental Boston, Acquia Engage will bring together some of the best and brightest minds in digital to share ideas, create new connections, inspire, and be inspired. The customer conference designed to showcase creative, forward-thinking digital experiences that Acquia customers and partners are creating today, fueled by the power of cloud and open source technologies.

Since the Acquia Engage pre-conference workshops have been a great success, they have decided to host them again this year and they will be held in their Boston office. Get guidance in Digital Portfolio Assessment, Product Ownership, Personalization & Content Best Practices as well as Practitioner Training on our Lift and Acquia Cloud Site Factory products.

Foremost leaders in digital transformation will take center stage to share their strategies, revelations, and most important lessons learned in the quest to deliver best-in-class customer experiences. This year’s three talk tracks — Build, Share, and Inspire — will cover a range of topics from the technical to the business-oriented, and will offer tips, tricks, and tools for building, creating, and supporting next-generation digital experiences.

Build - You live and breathe digital experiences, and are constantly on the lookout for the latest technology. Attend this tech-focused track to get under the hood of Acquia’s products and gain detailed knowledge that will take your sites and applications to the next level.

Share - The best way to learn about amazing digital experiences is by hearing about amazing Acquia customers. This eye-opening track will expand your thinking to new and creative ways, through learning how industry peers are tackling complex and interesting digital challenges.

Inspire - Together let’s explore the “art of the possible,” think outside the box, and become visionaries. New innovations, technology, and ideas are what shape our future, and this track will explore it all.

Today’s world is a digital-first, mobile-first, customer-first world; a world where the audience, the customer, the citizen, the visitor — to your website, your app, your social channels — is always in charge. To meet, and exceed, the needs of the modern consumer, our customers are moving at unprecedented speed, building digital ecosystems of the future, and driving steady progress in the digital space.

Customer experience is the sum of every touchpoint and interaction over a customer’s entire journey with your brand, from prospect to advocacy. But you cannot simply will an amazing customer experience into existence — you need a digital platform that will support you as plan, build, and orchestrate the journey.

Engage will provides an awesome opportunity to get a bit more familiar with the company, their customers, and their amazing partners. You’ll have a chance to chat with Acquia’s product experts and digital strategists, perhaps check out the Acquia, and get an exclusive look at Acquia’s long-term vision.

For the past four years, Acquia has recognized the work of partners and customers that are leading the way with digital with it’s Acquia Engage Awards. Projects will be judged on the following criteria: visual design, functionality, integration, and overall experience. A panel of web content management and digital marketing experts will serve as the judges.

Our very own Laura Myers will be judging along with conducting interviews at the event so make sure to stop by and say hello. Visit Acquia Engage for more an updated list of speakers and event information.
