State of Drupal in emerging markets survey 2012

Submitted by Jacob Singh

This survey is intended to gather data about Drupal's opportunities and challenges in emerging markets.  "Emerging market" is a loaded and awful term, but for lack of a better one, I'm using it to mean anywhere that doesn't already have a large Drupal marketplace and community (i.e. North America and Western Europe).

 
I'm going to use this data in my presentation at DrupalCon Denver and the raw data will be released publicly under a Creative Commons license.
 
The goals of my presentation are:
  • Highlight the growth of Drupal worldwide
  • Provide insights on the adoption patterns of customers in emerging markets
  • Show the challenges and opportunities for SMEs and large companies
  • Celebrate and discuss the challenges of new Drupal communities around the world
 
The presentation will be somewhat heavily about India and probably China.  So it will be skewed towards the big IT players and how they are adopting Drupal, but I hope to also present a well rounded view of many markets people are not aware of.
 
Please answer honestly and completely, and feel free to suggest additional questions & add comments in the provided long-answer fields.
 
If you have any questions, get in touch with me at http://www.jacobsingh.name/contact.
 
Thanks!
Jacob

The reason why we need the obd2 auto diagnostic tools is the need for curbing "mobile emissions". In tune with the need for global preservation, the EPA has been empowered to place firm emission standards. This has compelled the car manufacturers to bring in better non-polluting cars into the market. In turn, such strict measures for controlling emission levels have also helped to increase the functional life of the vehicle as well.

Hi Jacob

I get this: The requested page "/content/state-drupal-emerging-markets-survey-." could not be found.

from the link you mailed to the Drupal South Africa Group:

I'll fill in the survey from this post - maybe mail an updated link to the SA Group. Thanks for your efforts and look forward to seeing the data from your preso.
