FOUNDER

RODRIGO GUTIERREZ

Corialent

12 years ago, Rodrigo decided that the Coca Colas of the world shouldn’t be the only ones who get to have all the fun in the advertising industry. He was sick of all the dull, corporate, navy blue and white B2B work out there. Business people are people too. Corialent specializes in B2B marketing that doesn’t suck. And they want to get the rest of the industry drinking that delicious KoolAid.

Amazon Alexa Workshop

Creating Voice Experiences with Amazon Alexa Skills:

Idea to Testing in 3 hours

 

Amazon Alexa is Amazon’s cloud-based voice service and the brain behind tens of millions of devices enabling new customer experiences across many devices at home, work, in the car, and on the go. As a developer, you can build capabilities, or skills, that make Alexa smarter and make everyday tasks faster, easier, and more delightful for customers to fundamentally improve the way people will interact with technology. In this workshop you will learn how to build your first voice skill with Amazon Alexa.

 

 


We will cover how to build an Alexa skill, utilise AWS services such as AWS Lambda and Amazon DynamoDB, mimic human behaviour with your Alexa skill, and test and publish a skill. You’ll also walk out of the workshop with tips on how to make your Alexa skill more engaging to customers with voice user design best practices. Come prepared with at least 10 facts on your favourite topic, as we’ll show you how to create and publish your Alexa fact skill to the Australia and New Zealand Skills Store during the day.

 

This workshop requires you to bring a fully charged laptop, an Alexa Developer account (create one here), and administrative access to your own AWS account.
