2. In every API category, the companies with the best developer relations programs are in the top 3 performers, usually #1 and #2.

3. There are big opportunities for companies in the Geo, Music, Database, and Game Engine spaces to win with student hackers.

4. Now is a great time to be in developer event marketing. We're heading for a data revolution no other event marketing industry has.
