Registration Now Open for the Premier Event for Developers and Web Designers

Themed “Connect. Discover. Inspire.” this year’s MAX will connect attendees with top industry experts, provide opportunities to discover the latest techniques and cutting-edge technologies, and spark inspiration to create rich, engaging experiences.

“MAX has a mix of energy, ideas and attendee expertise that is totally unique in the software industry,” said Kevin Lynch, senior vice president and chief software architect for Adobe. “MAX brings together the Adobe community, creating an environment for designers and developers to discover new technologies, delivery channels, business opportunities and immerse themselves in an incredibly inspiring group of peers.”

MAX North America will feature keynotes from Adobe executives, more than 200 technical sessions, partner exhibits, executive and partner forums, a “sneak-peek” emerging technology session, birds-of-a-feather networking events, presentations from industry experts and a full day of hands-on workshops. Content tracks include: Rich Internet Applications; Web Site Application Development; Enterprise and Collaboration; Web, Video and Interactive Design; and Design Across Media.

MAX sessions and interactive workshops will encourage attendees to stretch their creative limits through a wide range of topics, including: the latest techniques in Web site prototyping, user interface design, online advertising, interactive games, accessibility, motion graphics and video encoding; current design trends that require combining media such as video, animation, sound and text to engage audiences and enhance a brand; powering public-facing sites, driving intranets and creating engines for the next generation of RIAs; and making key business processes more engaging and effective by learning to deploy RIAs and electronic documents.

“MAX offers an open exchange of ideas and the opportunity to be part of a broader ecosystem,” added Lynch. “We’re facilitating an open dialogue that addresses the widest range of technologies used by designers and developers to improve user experiences in every medium.”
