OptiCon, Optimizely’s very first user conference is less than four months away and we couldn’t be more excited. We’re expecting optimization enthusiasts from all over the globe to converge on San Francisco on April 17th, 2014 and talk about testing, optimization, and innovation.

Why are we hosting a user conference? In 2013, Optimizely swelled to serving 6,000+ customers globally. While our users fall on a broad spectrum of size from small start-ups to large international enterprises, they all share a core value, a desire to deliver the best online experience to their visitors. We are creating a destination for optimization enthusiasts, testing evangelists, and web design experts to come together to not only learn from visionary leaders in the online optimization space, but also to learn from one another.

Our goal is for attendees to walk away from OptiCon having learned skills, ways of thinking and methodologies they can apply immediately to start turning data they have about visitors into action that improves their business. We hope you’ll join us!
