DevFestX New Delhi - See you there!

“Develop what the World is developing” -  This quote from New Delhi GTUG is very appropriate for Google’s developer technologies. Google technologies touch millions of lives every day and by being part of the developer ecosystem one gets an opportunity to innovate by leveraging some of these technologies.

Therefore, to encourage developer engagement around various Google technologies and to provide a platform to collaborate, New Delhi GTUG is organizing its first developer conference: DevFestX 2012.

The event is planned for two days and will be held at the Google office in Gurgaon on 11th and 12th February 2012. The theme of day 1 is “Everyday Google”, on which some of the Google APIs will be introduced to the participants. This day has been intentionally kept for the budding developers. The second day will have sessions focused toward experienced developers, highlighted by an Android code sprint. The list of speakers includes Googlers and industry experts.

In addition to all this, the conference will provide an opportunity to promote the GTUG brand in the Northern part of the country.

Finally, let’s not forget that there will be some finger-licking dishes for you to enjoy.

See you there!
