We’re very proud to announce today an event that Dareboost is co-organizing with one of France’s leading e-commerce experts and other web performance experts: We Love Speed. This major event for #webperf fans is scheduled for October 9th in Bordeaux, France.
We Love Speed, the francophone web performance event
Gathered by the French retailer Cdiscount, three web performance specialists (Dareboost, obviously, Fasterize and the freelance Jean-Pierre Vincent) have set up a non-profit association dedicated to the organization, in France, of a major event dedicated to web performance.
This first edition will take place in Bordeaux, on October 9, 2018, at the Palais de la Bourse.
We are expecting more than 120 participants to attend a dozen conferences and roundtables. Web professionals, e-commerce professionals, and webperf experts will be gathered in a welcoming atmosphere, encouraging technical and methodological insights sharing and strategy optimizations.
The Conference Programme
Essentially French-speaking, the exciting program of We Love Speed also welcome some renowned international speakers such as Rick Viscomi (advocator of transparency on the Web at Google and data steward of HTTPArchive which we often mentioned on this blog) or Philip Tellis (developer for Akamai but above all, creator and Lead Developer of boomerang, the open-source reference library for real-time user performance measurement).
