They'll hear:

• How companies launch customer experience initiatives that deliver measurable ROI, building support for the next round of efforts.
• How to determine your organization’s level of customer experience maturity and create a road map to your vision of success.

Join us July 22-26 at the O'Reilly Open Source Convention 2013 in Portland, Oregon. We know you won't want to miss it: we're celebrating the 15th anniversary of OSCON, and it's going to be an extraordinary experience.

OSCON is the must-attend gathering of the best and brightest minds in technology, an opportunity to challenge your assumptions and spark your imagination. Join us for five immersive days of all things open source—new and innovative projects, major enterprise-wide deployments, and—from icons of the open source movement—deep perspective on where we've been and where we're headed.

Other conferences focus on one language or part of the stack—OSCON deals with the open source ecosystem in its entirety, exactly as you approach it in your work. That's just one reason why this event is the primary gathering place of the open source community. At OSCON, you will:

• Learn techniques you can use immediately to write great code
• Hear from over 300 speakers as they share latest developments, best practices, and tips and tricks to overcome some of your biggest challenges—and plan for the future
• Keep your skills up to date with sessions covering the full range of open source languages and platforms
• Go deep, in comprehensive tutorials on technical skills, new features and applications, and best practices
• Meet, share, and collaborate with 3,000+ open source developers, hackers, experts, vendors, and users of all levels
• Enjoy all sorts of evening events, gatherings, and receptions where you'll connect with fellow attendees, speakers, and sponsors

The open source world is bigger and more diverse than it was at the first OSCON, but one thing hasn't changed in 15 years—learning in person, from the masters, is both effective and inspiring. Take a look at the OSCON program and lineup of speakers; you'll find plenty of opportunities to learn from the best.

Some OSCON topics we know will get you fired up:

• Increasing your credibility and value to any company: how building your skills beyond “competency” makes you not only a better technologist, but a better bet for employers and clients
• Building a business around open source: best practices, dealing with obstacles, what it really takes to make it work
• Incorporating innovations in user experience, including interfaces, design, and usability
• Managing cultural change brought on by ubiquitous networks and computing devices
• Optimizing cloud computing and openness in distributed services
• Living the Geek lifestyle: hacking, productivity tips, maker culture
• Working with open web, open standards, and open data
• Understanding what leadership means in the culture of open source today

Event Description

We believe that mobile app marketing needs its own dedicated event – not just a half hour slot in a conference agenda.

The App Promotion Summit will cover topics like App Store Optimization (ASO), Cross Promotion Networks, Media Buying and App Discovery Apps in detail.

The App Promotion Summit is tackling a major issue, one that the vast majority of key players in mobile have a stake in – how can you best ensure that as many people as possible know about your app?

That’s why a conference, one that tackles the challenge head on, makes sense. We’re going to bring together all the different stakeholders, for one day, in a room for a series of presentations, discussions and relationship building. By the close of play on Thursday 11th July your thinking around your mobile app marketing strategy is going to be advanced. You’re going to go back to your desk the next day with ideas for new mobile app marketing channels, approaches and suppliers.

The summit will bring developers, media companies, app studios and brands together with the mobile ad networks, cross promotion exchanges, software and agencies that can help them succeed in mobile app marketing.

Key issues to be addressed:

• App Store SEO – how to do App Store Optimization

• Beyond the App Store – App Discovery Services and Cross Promotion

• Mobile Advertising – how to bring down your CPI and deliver high quality users

• Analytics – tracking and managing your metrics

• Integrated marketing – using PR and other channels in your campaign

Together we can contribute to solving the mobile app distribution problem and make the industry grow.

Quality People, Quality Time, Positive Solutions and Clear Thinking. Finally, a conference about Information Governance that doesn’t ask you questions; it answers them. The DLM Forum is holding a unique event in Dublin on 26th June that will be hosted by the National Archives of Ireland, at the historic Royal Hospital in Kilmainham, Dublin.

If you must create and ensure adoption of new policies: manage risk and ensure operational roll-outs of new systems for ever-expanding Compliance, without disrupting business, at the lowest cost, then this event is for you.

If you are confused by the conflicting messages about Big Data, Compliance, e-Discovery, FOI and all the other data ‘issues’. If you are worried about the spiralling costs of storing apparently limitless data, then join us and find a solution. If vendors offering ‘solutions’ besiege you, then come along and hear the truth.

Each of our sessions will challenge attendees to contribute. This is too important a topic for us to lecture while you sit back passively. Each session will involve an interactive format. It could be a panel, it might be the attendee posing the questions. Or it could be a debate, with vendors vs. delegates arguing the case.

Event Description

The central idea behind collaborative consumption, or “The Sharing Economy” is that access to goods and skills is more important than ownership of them. This movement represents a major economic, social and cultural shift and is redefining the ways goods and services are exchanged, valued and created.

This age of sharing is disruptive enough and has so many different applications, that regulators aren’t going to turn a blind eye. Be it the taxi lobby that has taken on Uber, the hotel tax hot button around Airbnb, or the utility company coming after you for installing a solar panel on your roof and selling power back to the grid.

For established industries, the sharing marketplace — with rapidly shifting social, cultural, and technological disruptions — is forcing them to respond too.

• Does crowdfunding threaten traditional funding sources indefinitely?
• Will getting a ride with a stranger for free turn public transportation systems on end?
• Will borrowing a car only when you need it, send the auto industry into a tailspin?
• Should the hospitality industry be nervous about the Airbnb model taking over?
• Are the digital “hippies” really just sipping each other’s Kool-Aid and a passing phase?

LeWeb London will explore the New Sharing Economy from all of these angles. Checking out the hot technologies at the heart of it and as always, hearing industry visionaries take on the concept.
