​9:30 AM – 10:20 AM | Panel 1: Low Cost Marketing, Big Time Impact
Economic uncertainty always leads to tighter marketing budgets.

​10:30 AM – 11:20 AM | Panel 2: Signals and Scoring: How to Measure Funnel Progress and Success
How do you know when your marketing is actually working (aside from just looking at the bottom line)? How do the white papers, documentation, events, advertising, and other experiences your team produces contribute to pushing a developer closer to a conversion? And how does measuring developer activity differ from targeting any other audience? Our panel of veteran professionals will share their experiences building successful marketing pipelines to drive developer audiences toward effective action, leaving you with ideas to optimize your upstream activities to improve downstream results.
