During this event you will be introduced to the platform OpenStack. By means of different complementary presentations (breakout sessions) on that day, you will be enlightened with the possibilities that OpenStack encompasses.

[OpenStack Marketing] User Videos at the Summit, do you have customers for us to interview?
by Nate Gandomi 08 May '14

08 May '14

Hello everyone! With the Summit just a few days away, we wanted to let you know the Foundation’s plans to record user video interviews on-site during the summit. We will have a booth set up on Level 2 of the convention center, and are scheduling appointments ahead of time, as well as taking walk-ups that we recruit at the event. We want to use this opportunity to capture as much content as possible while we have everyone together, and of course we’re interested in having your customers tell us why they’re happy working with you. These videos, once edited and approved by users, will be featured on OpenStack.org and also in a new publication we're launching for OpenStack users. Do you have a customer that would be interested in participating? If so, we'd like to schedule about 20 minutes of their time during the summit. Here are the details: - The video interview should take no more than 30 minutes - The final edited and approved video of a user interview will be 2-3 minutes long - All interviews will be recorded on-site at the summit in our video booth on level 2, near the press and analyst room. We already have quite a few user interviews scheduled, but wanted to make sure the marketing community was aware of this opportunity to feature your customer case studies. Please send me an email or find me on-site at the booth if we can set something up. Thanks and see you all soon! Nate -- Nate Gandomi // Jones-Dilworth, Inc.
