*   Daniel Jacobson of Netflix
*   David Weekly of Facebook
*   Drew Dillon of Yammer

*   Peter Rexer of Box

With the following sponsors stepping up to make sure the API community comes together and shares stories and experiences from the trenches:

APIStrat is shaping up to be twice the event we had in New York City, and it is still June--we still have four months to go! We are working hard to put together the best line up of keynotes, sessions, panels and workshops possible.
