5000 and counting… this is the number of registrants to the 52 webinars Talend has organized so far, in 3 languages and many different time zones.  The themes were varied: ETL, migration, SOA, cleansing, real-time, SAP, etc.

When we launched our webinar program in early 2008, we knew there was demand out there.  We were proven right.  The recipe for success here is important: provide actual content, not just a marketing pitch.  During these sessions and depending on the theme, attendees discover one of the dimensions of data integration, its challenges, and how open source can solve the equation.  This is illustrated with live demos of concrete use cases.  A proof that content is deemed valuable: attendees come back to attend other themes (20% of repeat attendees).

Interested?  Check our upcoming Webinars calendar.  We are in the process of adding dates and subjects for Q4 - so if you don’t find the theme you are looking for just now, bookmark the page and come back to check later.
