Welcome to the fifth consecutive Google I/O Extended in Grand Rapids!
Google I/O is an annual event hosted by Google to highlight the latest in technology and product innovation. This covers topics such as the IoT, working with material design, advancements in mobile technology, and more.
Google live-streams this event and encourages other communities to hold live watch-parties. In Grand Rapids, we take this opportunity to stream the keynote from Google, but also to pull together West Michigan tech community. This year's Google I/O Extended will be hosted at New Holland Brewing's newest venue, The Knickerbocker.
The conference will be different from I/O's of the past, with a focus on networking, good food, and an atmosphere for learning. This year will not have a large auditorium. Instead it will feature a distributed configuration with many TVs to watch Google provided content, and smaller, intimate presentations throughout the two day event.
Your registration will get you access to all activities on that day of the event - including lunch, refreshments, and after-party for those attending the evening of Day 1. We'll also be hosting a booth doing complementary, professional head-shot photos, so dress for success and get ready to brush up your online brand!
