Acquia Engage is coming soon (October 20 and 21) to a screen near you. There’s still time to register and join us! The Engage 2020 conference will be fully virtual and free for all attendees. 

This interactive event will inspire business and technology leaders to learn and connect on the path to bringing outstanding digital experiences to life with Drupal and Acquia. As a sponsor, we are excited to network with the Acquia community, connect with old friends, and meet new ones. 

 Here are a few highlights of what's happening in Mediacurrent’s virtual booth. We’ll be sharing best practices, case studies, and info sessions throughout the event. Drop in any time to chat with us.

Digital Experience Case Studies

Mediacurrent has been selected as finalists across three categories for the 2020 Acquia Engage Awards. These three finalists exemplify world-class digital experiences in healthcare, financial services, and emergency communication. Stop by our booth to learn best practices from these Acquia Open Experience Platform projects.

Area Alert - Open Source Giants 

Area Alert is an open source solution for organizations that need to quickly build highly performant, low-cost, and easy-to-update emergency websites during the COVID-19 pandemic and other large-scale emergencies. The Area Alert Drupal distribution delivers a head-start for faster deployment with special design consideration for the user experience in times of crisis.

Montefiore Medical Center - Building a Better Tomorrow 

The Bronx’s Montefiore Health System, which served one of the hardest hit areas in New York City, saw that existing and prospective patients were delaying the care and treatment they needed due to fears of COVID-19. Montefiore endeavored to create a new microsite to reassure patients of the steps the health system was taking to ensure patient safety, and encourage patients to return for the care they required. With just over one month to launch, a speedy end-to-end solution was needed to launch the COVID-SAFE Care microsite.

BDO Alliance USA - Leader of the Pack (Financial Services)

Become an indispensable resource to Alliance firms. This was BDO’s main goal when they approached Mediacurrent to expand its portal functionality and increase customer acquisition, retention, and satisfaction. BDO Alliance USA is among the industry's largest associations of accounting and professional service firms. The Alliance Portal, a private Drupal-based platform, is available to members of firms who are members of the BDO Alliance USA. BDO took a big step in the evolution of its Alliance Portal with the move toward a more integrated, relevant, and metrics-based platform.

Stump the Drupal Experts 

Lately, we’ve been focused on gearing up for Drupal 9 with our Rain install profile, increasing conversion rates with Acquia Personalization, and decoupling Drupal with Gatsby...but you can ask us anything.

Try to stump our Drupal experts with your digital dilemmas – they welcome the challenge!

Drupal 9: Roadmap and Tools

Everyone’s buzzing about the strategic advantages of Drupal 9. We’re here to bring those Drupal 9 visions to reality with these open source tools:   

  • Rain: Go from zero to launch in 30 days. This Drupal installation profile enables rapid development and gives editors the ability to build robust pages with over a dozen pre-built components.
  • Automated Updates: Speed up the update process 3x faster. Managing updates in Drupal can be a challenge as core and contributed projects are frequently updated. There’s a better way to streamline the management of your Drupal application.
  • Mediacurrent Multisite+: Spin up a new site in minutes — no development help required.
