Case Study: Stride achieves rapid delivery of conference resources and high attendee satisfaction with Acquia DAM

Stride - Customer Case Study

Stride, Inc., a global education company that delivers tech-enabled curricula and programs, needed a fast way to distribute materials for its annual Promising Practices conference as attendance grew (+11% year-over-year). In 2023 more than 5,000 attendees chose from 70+ sessions, and Stride required timely access to handouts and post-event recordings to maintain the conference’s practical, “use-it-today” value.

Stride built an Acquia DAM Portal to host conference resources—one teammate built the portal in under two days, and two teammates uploaded and tagged 129 items in under six days, with all session recordings posted in less than a week. The quick turnaround outpaced building a dedicated site, and the event earned 90% overall satisfaction; top sessions on engagement, diversifying the curriculum, and teacher self-care drew strong participation and high satisfaction, with attendees praising the timely resources.
