Strategic Internal Communications Boston conference room

Mid-July, a few of our LumApps Sales headed over to Boston to attend the 5th Annual Strategic Internal Communications conference, hosted by the Advanced Learning Institute. The event’s friendly scope was the perfect opportunity to retrieve direct feedback about what companies want in a digital workplace.

The Ideal Venue For Experts

Karolina and Vincent at LumApps boothHeld in the Omni Parker House in Boston on July 17-19, the Strategic Internal Communications was the perfect place for internal communication experts to meet and exchange ideas.

The conference was attended by passionate professionals who were very engaged in the speaker sessions, and looking for ways to improve the way they communicate internally.

Thanks to a no-pressure environment, discussions flowed easy and LumApps made around a hundred contacts. Our team saw genuine interest from attendees and enjoyed starting real conversations with enterprise deciders about their expectations and aspirations for communication solutions.

Here’s what they had to say.

After hearing from LumApps, attendees were excited about the possibilities for a new digital workplace! So they shared their common pain points with us.
