Local tech companies also tried their best at DevRel
地方テック企業もDevRel頑張ってみた
Summary:
要点:
The speaker is from a small tech company in Sapporo, Japan with 23 employees that works on location-based services and open data visualization.
The company focuses on contributing to the developer community by open sourcing their code, writing technical blogs, and supporting open source projects.
They create content like YouTube videos, online events, stickers/novelty goods to spread awareness about their work.
The company was founded by 3 people from the open source community so participating in the community is core to their culture.
After starting developer relations activities like blogging and community events, they have grown from 3 to 23 people and seen business growth, though evidence is anecdotal.
(00:01) [music] [applause] So I came all the way from Sapporo this morning. I'm a guy who's an engineer and marketer, and I do a lot of promo work and everything. I was asked by the management on the first floor if it's okay.
The company's name is Net, and our message is to change the world with one and the same information. I think everyone is probably tinkering with it somehow.
(02:07) We are a solutions company that needs a wealth of technology and experience in the area of information, so we'll give you a quick overview of what we do. We are a solutions company that requires a wealth of technology and experience in the field of information. I'm also working on a project to convert open data into Minecraft, which will be used to care for local children. I've been doing some consulting and development work on visualisation as of late.
(03:10) 3D products have increased a lot and we do mostly B2B and B2G, but we are a small company. I'm sure you can guess what it's like, but if I just say it in words, it's roughly what it's like. (04:55) I'm not sure if you can imagine what it's like to be a PC, but I think you can all guess.
(04:55) I think it's quite common that customers don't know what's great for them, or they can't explain to their bosses, or they have a big demanding life, but we have to do something about that, we have to raise the value here, differentiate ourselves, and get good work rules. I'm not sure what we're doing, but there are a lot of places that have content communities, but we're also trying to create a dynamic, undergraduate level of work, and we're trying to create a community that's based on the principles of action. We've got adverts on the base, like in Tangible Britain, but when you open everything up, it does a lot of good, and we have very good posters.
(06:00) And then there's the three-sheet reconciliation, but first of all, what we're doing, in terms of our actions, is we're communicating our code technology, and WWD, the plug-in that you just mentioned, is almost openly available, for example, Jackson's data is available without telling Gus [music]. GTF] [Music] [Music] We were talking about the blog earlier, but the PV of the blog is 1.8 million yen, and it's amazing how many companies are using it.
(07:02) I think it's finished, but just for reference, our company's web page is only 20,000 pages, so if you've heard about it, you've heard about it. I'm very grateful to you for the opportunity to speak to you, and I'd like to thank you for your time. I've been doing it up to 30 times, and I've written a lot of notes, and I've got YouTube 1,220,000 subscribers, which isn't a lot, but it's about the same number of subscribers as the big ben interns, so I think I'm doing pretty well [music].
(08:08) We also held an online event last year for the first time in a long time and it was a lot of fun. I have a lot of interesting novelty goods and stickers that I'm planning to put out later, so please let me know if you'd like some water. I'm sorry, I forgot my keyboard, caps, keyboard lovers, I'll see you later, I think I've got just enough.
(09:12) Thank you very much. [applause] [music] But we're doing it there, and it was ranked number one in the Amazon sales ranking by Central Systems yesterday. I'm talking about a serious matter, but I was the person in charge of the earthquake report about 12 years ago, and my experience at that time was really powerful, and I think this is really important for the community. (10:16) This red part of the map was created in 1960, but it's DL5.
(10:16) The red part here is where I'm talking about what we're all aiming for, but I think this is exactly what community and shaky relationships are all about, so it's not about centralisation, it's not about localisation, it's about connecting each other well. I'm the first company founded by three people who were originally active in the core open source community, so we can no longer exist without the community, and there are many things we can't do without the culture of the community. We're doing a lot of open source contributions, for example, we're sponsoring $4,000 a year for the Map Libretto and macbooks fork wonder, and we're doing $10,000 a year for sports, and we're also working with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism as a platform partner.
(11:20) We're also a partner of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, and we've got our own engineers on their board, and we've got a unit on AWS, and we've talked a few times about how we're a good supporter of [music] [music], but then how do you go about doing that? I'd like to put it out one round ahead of the others.
I've also been involved in the advent calendar and the Circuit Map Challenge, a mysterious event where people from all over the world raise 60 million yen for a map of the world. I'm not sure if I'm doing this unexpectedly, but we hold an internal taste praise meeting at the event.
(The first time I went to a concert, I was in the middle of the city, and I was in the middle of the city's biggest city, and I was in the middle of the city's biggest city, and I was in the middle of the city's biggest city, and I was in the middle of the city's biggest city. I'd like to talk a little bit about the positives and the positives of the Handlab. I'm sorry to say that I've been working on the sales task a lot, but there are a lot of other things that have contributed to this. I'm sorry, but there are a lot of other factors, but I think I've made a great contribution.
(14:31) I'm not sure, but it's a good feeling to be alive [music] [music] I think it's important to understand that, even if you say both things, it's not going to get anywhere. The first thing I did was to take a look at the pictures of the two of them together and see what they were like.
(15:36) I'm going to say how do I explain it better than other people who are not fat at all, but I'll give you three [music] So, to summarize, we've tried to miniaturize the regions, and we've had good results with the shaky hands. I'd like to contribute further to the growth of the project via the later stages.
