Guest speakers are professionals from the local tech community that come to share their experiences, insights and knowledge within the tech industry. After each guest talk, we host a Q & A and meet and greet where you'll have an opportunity to ask questions and meet the guest presenters! This is a great way to learn more about the tech industry and network with industry professionals. 

Peter Gess- Senior Sales Engineer, Vivial 

This session will be interactive, please bring your laptops!

SMS is the next frontier of customer and user experience: According to Gartner, 90% of companies today compete solely on customer experience. While email gets caught in spam filters and social media app fatigue continues to grow, text messaging is the next phase of customer experience providing direct communication on a native platform everyone understands and use. I could go over a couple of ways that SMS compliments your app communication strategy and talk about how customers are using our SMS API in their development.

About Peter:
Peter’s calling is to serve others through technology by cultivating human flourishing and believes we are only scratching the surface in leveraging technology for the good of people. His passion lies in the space between finding a solution for a defined need (business development) and structuring that solution (engineering).

Peter’s professional background includes working in tech startups as a founder himself as well as on early stage teams. His current role is a Senior Sales Engineer at Vivial where he is the product champion for a text messaging API used by developers leveraging SMS to provide an exceptional customer experience in their applications. Technically, Peter is a self-taught developer and believes that technical knowledge can benefit many roles beyond programming and will eventually be table stakes for working in the software industry.

Getting to Prime: 

  • We recommend parking in the Gateway Ramp at 400 S 3rd St. and have stickers for partial validation ($7 total cost).

  • From the Gateway ramp take Level 3 to the skyway. Follow signs for the Grain Exchange Building in the skyway. Once you're in the Grain Exchange Building, take level 5 to Prime.

  • There are some street metered spots available as well but note that we're on the north side of the Grain Exchange building. If you find yourself on level 5 and don't see us you're likely on the wrong south side of the building!

  • Please budget a little extra time for parking plus finding us in the Grain Exchange Building.

  • If you arrive at Prime after 6pm the front doors are locked. You will need to contact Prime at 952-222-8108 to enter.
