The last FileMaker DevCon happened in 2019, and the conference we’ve attended for many years is no more. Instead, Claris International brings us Claris Engage in August 2020, a conference where the theme is digital transformation using FileMaker, Claris Connect and everything else to which we can connect. Rosemary Tiege, Head of Community at Claris International sits with me today to talk about Claris Engage. She shares how the conference moving forward is different than DevCon. She also talks about Claris Engage speaker submissions. Rosemary shares with us what they are looking for in speaker proposals and what makes a successful session. And finally we discuss the community: its scope and its future.
