Acquia Engage, the Premier Digital Transformation Conference, Returns to Boston This October

Annual Conference Spotlights the Winning Strategies of Organizations That Think Ahead


BOSTON, MA--(Marketwired - Apr 9, 2015) - Acquia, the digital experience company, today opened registration for its annual customer conference -- Acquia Engage. Executives from Global 2000 brands, government agencies and NGOs will take center stage in Boston on October 20-22 and share how they're optimizing the customer experience for transformative business results.

As tech-savvy, empowered consumers are defining today's digital trends and channels, it is up to organizations to change their business processes and respond in real time. Digital practitioners are harnessing big data to create micro campaigns that bring targeted, relevant experiences to precisely the right audience. Digital creates a greenfield for companies to build new sales channels and better serve customers. Government is leading the way with initiatives that increase citizen access to data and services. These trends are at the heart of Acquia Engage, the premier conference for the business and technical leaders who are rewriting the rules for digital engagement.

Acquia Engage is designed to give attendees everything they need to start charging toward digital transformation:

Inspiration from Thought Leaders. Hear from visionary keynote speakers, including Dries Buytaert, Acquia co-founder and Drupal project lead. Acquia will announce the full list of exciting keynote speakers soon.

Valuable Insights from the Best Companies. With more than 50 breakout sessions, attendees will walk away with compelling, actionable strategies for tackling commerce and customer engagement head-on.

Networking and Fun. There's plenty of time for networking, learning from peers, and having fun at Acquia Engage. Last year's conference featured headline performer George Clinton and his legendary funk; plans are in the works for another memorable customer celebration.

"With more than 500 attendees, last year's Acquia Engage was an exceptional gathering of digital leaders," said Tom Wentworth, Acquia CMO. "Everyone who came to the conference walked away with powerful insights on how to navigate and accelerate the journey of digital transformation. This year, we're going bigger, and I can't wait to share our unbelievable lineup of speakers and entertainment. Coming to Engage is an outstanding experience for Acquia customers and anyone interested in learning from the world's most successful digital organizations."

Last year's speakers and attendees represented organizations from around the globe, including NBC, Pfizer, Puma, Rotary, Timex, Tesla Motors and the City of Boston. To view the full list of speakers and sessions from last year, visit https://engage2014.acquia.com/speakers.
