LIMITED TO THE FIRST 30 REGISTRANTS!

Special three-day, hands-on training at Edge St. Louis for IT professionals, led by expert trainers from HP

The Edge St. Louis World Expo now has special, world-class training for programmers, coders and other IT pros. The Dscoop Hack-a-Thon program will empower registrants to improve their technical skills in ways that help their companies integrate, automate, and save time and money.

The program will take place in a special room during 3 days of the conference — Monday, May 8, Tuesday, May 9, and Wednesday, May 10— and will be led by expert trainers from HP.

Please note: Space is limited to the first 30 people who designate themselves as a Hack-a-Thon attendee during registration for Edge St. Louis.

WHY: Integration and Automation Are Critical

As HP’s Bob Raus often says, “Integration is the foundation of business automation.” The more efficient and automated your processes, and the better your systems work cohesively together, the more likely you'll maximize performance.

Here’s a good example of three Dscoopers benefiting from a smart approach to systems integration. They’re all facing the same challenges as your company:

  • Need to manage labor shortages
  • Higher volume of small jobs
  • Consistent color control for brands
  • Increased pressure for faster turnaround
  • Detailed reporting requirements

That’s why so many printers rely on the ability of PrintOS to optimize print operations, automate production and open new opportunities for growth.

HOW: Hands-On Doing, Learning & Collaborating

Attendees won’t just be learning from HP’s expert trainers. They’ll be doing, asking, chatting, coding, debugging … and succeeding.

They’ll learn how to leverage HP Indigo’s APIs and SDKs. After leveling up their technical skills, they’ll leave St. Louis ready to help their companies …

  • Collect production data automatically
  • Streamline job submission
  • Track paper usage more effectively
  • Invoice customers faster
  • Ensure color accuracy
  • Calculate profitability for every job
  • Improve the overall order-to-shipping process

The Hack-a-Thon room will be collaborative, as participants meet and work alongside other IT pros with similar challenges and goals.

“This new Hack-a-Thon is a great example of the innovation I expect from Dscoop. I’m bringing two developers.”
