The Internet has changed how public relations does business. Now it's no longer enough to send a press release or pitch email. Stories need to be illustrated using video and imagery to communicate. Public relations professionals need to become content creators, versed in the technology and skilled in creating compelling materials. David Parmet presented at Visual Storytelling Summit 2016.
What you will learn:
- Learn why they should think visually in their PR efforts
- Get real world examples of visual communication in PR

Enhancing Real-World Education Through Immersive Virtual Experiences
Over the last few years infographics has rocketed into the public consciousness as a visual storytelling method. As with an creative outlet there are the good and bad examples, within this talk we're explore what makes a good infographic, what to consider before you start sketching and work through some methods for creating an infographic. Talking about breaking down the data set to find the best story, constructing the correct story flow, understanding how to construct the clear story and what it is important. Could be useful to anyone who would like to create infographics, improve any skills if they are just starting out, understand how to use infographics as part of their storytelling.
Mythbusting Websites: What Prospects Value About #HigherEd Websites (and What...mStoner, Inc.
Prospective students — especially teens — are a prime audience for a college website. But do we really know what teens are looking for when they visit your .edu? We designed, in partnership with mStoner, Inc. and Higher Ed Live, a survey asking teens to share their frank opinions of the college websites they’ve visited.
We asked them to tell us what they looked for on websites when they were researching colleges, choosing where to apply, and deciding which to attend. What did they like about the sites they visited? What was the most important content — and when was it important? What were the frustrations they experienced? What were the best sites they looked at? And they didn’t hold back.
Next, we sent the same survey to admission staff, web developers, designers, and marketers at colleges who were designing and redesigning websites for this key audience. We wanted to find out what they knew (or thought they knew) about what teens wanted.
The resulting presentation will explore where their perspectives converge — and where they differ — and how marketers can leverage this knowledge.
What You Will Learn
• What’s important, when. Knowing what kind of content students value and when in their college search and choice process they particularly value it helps college and university staff tune up websites and informs content strategy and storytelling.
• Where the problems are on .edu websites. Identifying typical problems on college websites helps colleges to ensure that they address those issues on their own sites.
• Where to invest your time and resources. You’ll learn what kinds of content prospects value so you can create more of it: If prospects don’t value alumni profiles, why create them?
• What college web, marketing, and admissions professionals don’t understand about what teens do on their sites. We’ll highlight significant disconnects between what on-campus professionals think they know about what teens do, and what they actually do.

The most important part of VR interaction is the person doing the interacting. Human-centered interaction design focuses on the human side of communication between user and machine: the interface from the user’s perspective. Focusing on users is more important for VR than for any other medium. When VR is done well, interactions can be brilliant and pleasurable, but when done badly, they can result in frustration, fatigue, and sickness. Many causes of bad VR are centered on a lack of understanding of human perception, intuitive interaction, design principles, and real users. Quality interactions enhance user understanding of what has just occurred, what is happening, what can be done, and how to do it. For optimal VR experiences, goals and needs must be efficiently achieved, and the experiences must be engaging and enjoyable.

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.
"Impact of front-end architecture on development cost", Viktor TurskyiFwdays
I have heard many times that architecture is not important for the front-end. Also, many times I have seen how developers implement features on the front-end just following the standard rules for a framework and think that this is enough to successfully launch the project, and then the project fails. How to prevent this and what approach to choose? I have launched dozens of complex projects and during the talk we will analyze which approaches have worked for me and which have not.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
Let's dive deeper into the world of ODC! Ricardo Alves (OutSystems) will join us to tell all about the new Data Fabric. After that, Sezen de Bruijn (OutSystems) will get into the details on how to best design a sturdy architecture within ODC.

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.

Teegan because they kept running
into walls when trying to visualize her
procedure.”
