DevFest is an international tech conference series organized by Google Developer Groups. The events are based on the desire of local developer communities to bring together programmers, students, tech companies and speakers to share their experiences and perspectives on the IT industry. DevFest focuses on Google technologies (such as Android, Cloud, Firebase, Chrome, AI, ML etc). And, it's an opportunity to connect with fellow guilds and discover industry news. We want to address topics of interest to the learning objectives of the local community of programmers.
