SIGNAL, Twilio’s customer and developer conference, is going virtual this year, September 30-October 1, and it’s not too late to join more than 20,000+ developers, business leaders, enterprises, and startups to learn how to build better customer communications and experiences.

We’re looking forward to an unbelievable virtual event this year and there’s so much happening you don’t want to miss. Here are top 10 things you can look forward to this year:

10. An immersive keynote

This year's keynote will be like no other.  We have amazing customers lined up to talk about their strategies for digital engagement.  We're using an XR stage to make attendees feel a part of the experience and to demonstrate exactly how our products would operate in the real world.

9. Developer mode

We’ve created a unique viewing experience just for developers that we are calling Developer Mode. Developer Mode makes SIGNAL even more interactive by taking the keynote content from the browser into developers' terminals using the Twilio CLI. From there, developers can further explore the SIGNAL schedule and SIGNAL TV, download and set up samples locally for a wide variety of Twilio use cases in less than 5 minutes, discover a secret cheat mode and more! 

8. A Supersized Superclass featuring Bill Nye

Superclass is here to help you get a handle on the ever-expanding Twilioverse. If your company uses Twilio, your development team can't afford to miss it. This year's Superclass is fully optimized for a virtual experience with two days of bite-sized workshops. We'll introduce a new TwilioQuest character and Bill Nye will even make a guest appearance!

7. 75+ Content Sessions, live and on-demand

Knowing that video fatigue is a real thing these days, we've made our session content short and to the point (no more than 20-30 minutes/session). Each session will feature deep dives on the Twilio products you love and those you haven't met yet. Plus, learn from Industry leaders about delivering more personal experiences at scale with Twilio.

6.Connect live with product experts

This year you won’t just be watching the keynote, you’ll get to engage with people watching and talk to product experts. We’ve built an interactive platform powered by Twilio Flex so you can easily set up for 1:1 meetings with product experts and participate in live Q&A throughout the 2 days.

5. Build your own avatar
