How does this compare to / intersect with / correspond with the 25.2 product announcement webinar happening later today? Is it totally separate or is this some component of that, or otherwise?
Content would be the same but at different times. The current webinar is the EMEA one. Rest 2 (Americas and APJ) will follow up as scheduled.
These are the "Product Announcement Webinars", hosted directly via a meeting interface (Bigmarker lately), happening today at 12 EDT. These have been happening regularly for at least 6 or so years now, always available via signup.
Contrated with this post, which is seemingly talking about the "release highlights livestream", advertised as starting at 11 EDT (edit: next week on thursday, not today - apparently i'm blind lol). The branding and timeslots between the two are different, and they haven't specified what (if anything) is shared between them, or if they're totally separate productions, for instance. Hence my clarification question above.
Ah I see! I somehow mixed the two topics up by the 'Live' marker there.
Hi Mike!
Great question! Here's the difference:
The Product Announcement Webinar is a high-level overview of all the new features, aimed at a broader audience (including business analysts, partners, and anyone curious about what’s new).
On the other hand, the Release Highlights livestream is geared specifically toward Appian developers. It's more conversational and hands-on. Our awesome host Kait chats with Appian SMEs about the features we think developers will be most excited about. There's usually a build demo involved, and when we can, we even bring developers onto the livestream.
Since it’s on YouTube, we keep an eye on the live chat and try to answer as many questions as we can in real time. Hope that helps clear things up, and thanks again for asking!
