Next week, the Radisson Blu hotel in Frankfurt will be the venue for the European Drupal Business Days. We’ve been the go-to hosting experts for European Drupal shops for more than seven years now, so of course freistilbox will be there, too!

From Thursday on, executives, marketing and tech leads from Drupal agencies all over Europe will meet in Frankfurt to tackle topics like brand communication, content management, strategy and leadership. Trust me, it’s a great idea to join us!

There will be keynotes by three of the smartest minds in the content business:

• Collin Müller, Hubert Burda Media: “Drupal at Hubert Burda Media — Lessons learned in Thunder’s first year”
• Zach Chandler, Stanford University: “Content Management and Microservices: A Unifying Strategy for the Distributed Enterprise”
• Dr. Jürgen Kütemeyer, trio-group: “Brand Communication 4.0”

On top of that, there’s a great lineup of speakers covering three session tracks, “Digital Transformation”, “Technology Leaders” and “Digital Government”. I’ve been invited to share my IT management experience in two talks: In “How to bake a cake while juggling chainsaws”, I’ll explain how we saved our sanity (and probably our business) by embracing lean IT processes. The second talk, “Building resilience in IT teams” will be a useful overview of methods to prevent burn-out in yourself and your team.

This is going to be a great Drupal event, and if you haven’t registered yet, I recommend you get your ticket immediately — there’s only a handful left!
