Going for the Gut: Building Emotionally Satisfying Digital Experiences
Probably one of the biggest issues digital marketers face is creating digital marketing that doesn’t look like, well, digital marketing. Particularly when it comes to linchpin categories such as Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG), where multi-billion brands have long been known for their stirring broadcast work and generation spanning brand mascots. Think Poppin’ Fresh (aka the Pillsbury Doughboy), Tony the Tiger, the Keebler Elves. Those friends (or enemies) you grew up with!
But when it comes to the digital space, that emotional connection all too often becomes one that is transactional, forgettable or unsustainable.
In this session we will examine how to build, maintain and nurture emotionally satisfying digital experiences for FMCG brands that leverage the unique qualities of the interactive space to create high-involvement consumer/brand interactions.
Using real life examples from brands such as ConAgra Foods, Smuckers and P&G, we’ll offer a detailed vision of how the smartest marketers are approaching this issue and provide a unique perspective on integrating the barrage of new technologies without losing focus on the bigger picture.
Culture is the ultimate competitive advantage. Companies like Zappos and HubSpot leverage it to attract and retain the best employees. But it’s also not accidental. It’s a very intentional, continuous investment. Learn best practices and tips for creating an awesome company culture that acts as a magnet to recruit and retain A+ talent for your organization.
I have been the program leader of the Masters of Communication Design Labs at the Istituto Europeo di Design (IED) Madrid since January 2014. I’ve been lucky enough to work with Ugo Ceria and David Stanley as tutors as well as a host of other talented creative professionals who run different modules throughout the year. (sidenote: if you’re interested in speaking as part of the course, please drop me a note!).
In December I was asked to speak at an open evening lecture series called “Design Experience” on the topic of “Advertising in a digital world”. In this short talk we discussed Moving channels, Authentic stories, Velocity of content, Native partnerships, Experimentation and iteration.
The session was followed by a roundtable with Ugo Ceria (JWT) and Juan Garcia Escudero (Leo Burnett), where are talked about Juan Garcia’s wildly successful Christmas Lottery Advertising campaign (more information on this here http://www.reasonwhy.es/actualidad/campanas/el-anuncio-de-la-loteria-de-navidad-ya-esta-aqui_2014-11-12)
A loyalty program for the digital age. How can we create a new loyalty program for individuals over 55+. With the advent of desktop, smartphones and tablets how can small businesses succeed in this digital age. With the introduction of creating an online community that crowd sources all of the discounts / rewards nationwide we create an easier way for small businesses to complete with larger companies by having access to data about their customers that are over 55.

A tale of scale & speed: How the US Navy is enabling software delivery from l...sonjaschweigert1
Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.
Gopinath Rebala
Gopinath Rebala is the CTO of OpsMx, where he has overall responsibility for the machine learning and data processing architectures for Secure Software Delivery. Gopi also has a strong connection with our customers, leading design and architecture for strategic implementations. Gopi is a frequent speaker and well-known leader in continuous delivery and integrating security into software delivery.
Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
PHP Frameworks: I want to break free (IPC Berlin 2024)Ralf Eggert
In this presentation, we examine the challenges and limitations of relying too heavily on PHP frameworks in web development. We discuss the history of PHP and its frameworks to understand how this dependence has evolved. The focus will be on providing concrete tips and strategies to reduce reliance on these frameworks, based on real-world examples and practical considerations. The goal is to equip developers with the skills and knowledge to create more flexible and future-proof web applications. We'll explore the importance of maintaining autonomy in a rapidly changing tech landscape and how to make informed decisions in PHP development.
This talk is aimed at encouraging a more independent approach to using PHP frameworks, moving towards a more flexible and future-proof approach to PHP development.
