Do you want to save time responding to the same routine requests over Facebook Messenger, Twitter and E-Mail?

Do you want to help people accomplish a task without the hassle and complex navigation?
Do people expect you to be available 24/7? Do you wish you could answer customer queries sooner?

Then this is the event is for you! We’ll show you how easy (or difficult) is it actually to build a chatbot and how you can leverage messaging platforms to engage your audience.

Discover the best use-cases for chatbots and why chatbots are the way forward.

Mobile is everywhere, but the average number of app installs has fallen. The average smartphone owner has 30 apps on their phone but typically only uses 9 regularly.

Messaging and Chat apps like WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, WeChat and assistants such as Amazon Alexa are where people are spending the majority of their time.

Chatbots are the new interfaces for messaging apps, and chatbots are changing the way businesses and customers interact.

Join us for an evening with Gemma and Evangelos who will show us the exciting world of chatbots and demo how to build your own chatbot with Oracle's tools.

During the live demo, you'll see how to automate a routine task by building a chatbot that can answer common questions, how to connect the bot with Messenger, and how to define intents and APIs for your own custom components.
