DevFests are local tech conferences hosted by Google Developer Groups (GDG) worldwide. Each DevFest event is crafted by its local organizers to fit the needs and interests of its local developer community. Whether through hands-on learning experiences, technical talks delivered in local languages by experts, or by meeting fellow local developers, DevFest attendees learn how to build together and innovate.
This year, Google Developer Groups, GDG Cloud Boston, GDG Boston Android, and GDG Lawrence have decided to host a Dev fest in Boston. These groups have kept themselves active throughout the pandemic by hosting a variety of hybrid meetups and have, in general, built strong developer communities over the years.
Since this would be a platform to connect with tech enthusiasts in-person after the pandemic hiatus, it would be a great opportunity for our team to provide an enriching learning experience to the attendees.
The sessions are formatted in a way where the participants learn about all the latest features in Cloud, AI, and Android.
CFP (Call-For-Papers): DevFest Boston 2023 welcomes you to submit your proposal for a session to be presented at our amazing event via this link.
