Acquia Engage Takes Over New Orleans and You’re Invited

 With its vibrant festivals and good vibes, New Orleans is the perfect spot to host Acquia Engage! New Orleans is known as a center of culture, diversity and history. We’re embracing this spirit of connection and soulful storytelling through programs that encourage people to learn from others across different fields and backgrounds. Our two-day customer conference is happening from November 11-13 in the heart of New Orleans, Louisiana at the Hyatt Regency.

Now in its sixth year, Acquia Engage promises to be a whirlwind event full of education, networking and entertainment that brings together leaders and experts across all industries and sparks new connections. Last year, one Engage attendee described the experience as “technically enriching and delicious!” So this time around, we’re bringing you all those informative and inspirational moments with a kick of Cajun flavor.

As we continue to develop and push the boundaries of digital innovation, we want to invite members of our community to take part in the evolution at Engage. The last few months have been a transformative time at Acquia, from our recent acquisition of open marketing cloud Mautic to the opening of our new Pune office and our continued growth and expansion into new markets like Latin America. A few months ago at Engage Europe 2019, we revealed five brand new product developments and there are even more exciting developments in the works this time around that will be announced at the event!

Unlike other conferences that tend to limit their focus to a single department or vertical, Engage is unique for its diverse mix of professional perspectives and voices, uniting developers, digital marketers and business executives in lively discussions that explore every part of bringing outstanding digital experiences to life. Engage NOLA will include four industry roundtables focusing on financial services, health care, education and technology where you can chat with real people in your space. Come and speak with Acquia product experts and digital strategists, as well as partners and Acquia customers on how they’ve worked to overcome challenges and exceed customer expectations. 

To ensure everyone gets the most out of their time, we’ve created three breakout tracks where attendees can receive hands-on training with industry experts to learn the up-and-coming ideas, tools and tips of their craft to take their digital efforts to the next level:

1. Build

For Developers and Technical Architects

In this track hosted by Drupal developers for Drupal developers, we’ll cover all the skills you need to know to build the world’s most ambitious digital experiences. You’ll hear lessons on designing seamless integrations, building and iterating applications quickly and lowering development and maintenance costs.

2. Create

For Content Marketers, Content Managers and Experience Designers

Content is the backbone that supports every type of customer experience from websites to mobile apps to voice interactions. Content creators and editors who attend our Create track will get a first-hand look at how the most innovative companies in the world are using Drupal to create ambitious, exceptional content experiences. Our brand experts will demonstrate smart, simple ways to create and manage content for sites and applications and streamline the content creation and editorial processes to produce content at scale and deliver it across every channel. 

3. Personalize 

 For Digital Marketers and Marketing Ops/Automation Managers

Doing personalization right today is much more than “Hello [Insert Name Here].” Consumers expect an end-to-end experience that’s personalized to their specific interests and needs. To keep up with this demand, digital marketers must embrace complex buyer journeys that weave seamlessly across every touchpoint. In our Personalize track, you’ll get step-by-step instructions on how to customize and streamline content at scale for use in marketing efforts across websites, mobile and everywhere else your customers are interacting with your brand.
