We are in the midst of a huge change. Websites are no longer bound to the desktop screen. Interfaces are expected to adapt as users interact with them in different contexts. The web is changing and so is the way in which we build it.

We can no longer assume that our designs are going to be viewed within a fixed size viewport. By laying a solid design foundation and defining patterns, we position our web applications to adapt to whatever screen and device the future throws at us.

Enough with the fun and games already: Drupal is serious business, and the Business and Strategy Track is here to prove it. With a focus on strategic planning and business management, this track will provide insight on meeting the real-world challenges of today’s economy for organizations adopting Drupal.

The Nonprofit, Government and Education track is focused on ways organizations can best leverage Drupal to achieve greater community impact. Strategies in fundraising, community building, organizing and data management are constantly evolving and so are the numerous ways Drupal is being used to achieve success in these areas. We're excited to feature two speakers: Jeff Walpole and Zach Chandler.

The Drupal Community track will be used for discussing and presenting ways to continue to grow the Drupal Community. As the community grows, we are continually faced with the issue on how to keep the communications open and helpful to as many members as possible.

The Mobile track at DrupalCon Denver is focused on building Drupal sites and services for phones, tablets, and other non-desktop devices. Mobile technologies — both in terms of web development and native mobile apps — are rapidly changing how visitors and site administrators interact with the web, and this track will cover how we can make the most of Drupal across these new frontiers. We're excited to feature two speakers: John Albin Wilkins and Kyle Browning.
