Opening Keynote Session
Join FileMaker president Dominique Goupil as he shares his vision of FileMaker's future, in 2009 and beyond. And don't miss the thrilling, exclusive, "only at DevCon" demos of FileMaker products and technologies.

DevCon Orientation
If you’re attending DevCon for the first time, we have an orientation session to help you choose the sessions that are right for you. We’ll point out the events you won’t want to miss, and give you tips on how to get the most of out DevCon.

Tech Support Central
Get the answers you need directly from a FileMaker technical support expert. Bring your Windows or Mac OS application to Tech Support Central and meet one-on-one with Tech Support team members. You'll find an array of development resources, including key products, session presentations, sample files, and expert advice. Take advantage of this hands-on opportunity to experiment with the latest development technology and consult with the experts. You'll have the opportunity to sign up for an appointment at the Product Showcase.

Meet the FileMaker Team
Here is your chance to talk directly with FileMaker. Members of the FileMaker team will be in Phoenix to hear from you and share information and knowledge with you! This is your chance to meet, learn from and even influence FileMaker insiders.

Special "Under the Hood" Session
FileMaker architects and senior engineers will answer your questions about how FileMaker products and technologies work "under the hood," allowing you to better understand how to use FileMaker in creating your database solutions.

Visionary Bar
If you need answers or advice on almost any topic (from AppleScript to zippScript) to help you build powerful applications using FileMaker, head to the FileMaker Visionary Bar in the Product Showcase. Much like an Apple Store Genius Bar, FileMaker users and developers can get objective, ad hoc, walk-up help with all-things-FileMaker from purchasing/licensing questions to design ideas, to product recommendations to hard-core tech support and trouble-shooting from the world's top professionals.

Annual FileMaker Excellence Awards Ceremony
FileMaker Business Alliance Members are invited to the 2008 FileMaker Excellence Awards ceremony to honor individuals and companies for their outstanding contribution to the FileMaker community. Join us for this special evening to meet your peers and FileMaker staff. If you are not an FBA member, find out how to join at: www.filemaker.com/fba/index.html.

DevCon Welcome Reception
Monday night is the Opening Welcome Reception and a great opportunity to meet the speakers, and connect with your colleagues in a casual and festive atmosphere. Much of the value of DevCon comes from your new connections with other FileMaker developers, so get out there, shake some hands and meet some real-life resources.

DevCon Dinner Party
It's time to blow off a little steam and have some fun! Tuesday night is the annual FileMaker DevCon Party with great food, drink and friends. This is the party of the year — so don't miss it!

Music Jam Sessions
Enjoy the entertainment of fellow attendees and speakers or bring your musical talent to the stage. Wanna sing? Bring the words! Wanna play? Bring your own instrument — flute to Fender — or share our drums and guitars.

Closing Session
We’ll close with Bill Epling, FileMaker Senior Vice President of Finance and Operations, for an informative and entertaining look at the "state of FileMaker’s business," its health, viability and stature among competitors. And plans for nurturing "the next generation of FileMaker users" will be shared by Ryan Rosenberg, Vice President of Marketing and Services.
