You've build a solid developer community and program in your base country and are ready to conquer a new market. Unfortunately, you don't speak its language nor understand its culture. Now what? Do you replicate your developer programs in its entirety? Do you "outsource" everything to a local partner? In this talk, I will draw upon my experiences building developer communities and designing developer programs across Asia. Asia is home to 60% of the world's population with over 2000 languages - it is not a monolithic region and should not be treated as such. Despite only being fluent in English and having lived in Singapore most of my life, I was able to build developer communities and design effective developer programs in the region and I want to teach you how. I will share practical tips, pros and cons, and how to navigate foreign markets. You will walk away with practical steps to get started on expanding your developer programs to different countries!
