Where the cloud meets the road

Google Cloud Platform announced a series of global events in the fall of 2013 designed to introduce developers to its infrastructure technologies, featuring stops in Tokyo, Paris, Berlin, Tel Aviv, and London. Each event is structured over two days, with the first day focusing on why and how to use the Cloud Platform, and the second day offering hands-on coding labs for participants to apply what they've learned. Attendees receive a startup pack with $2,000 in Cloud Platform credits to further explore and utilize the platform. The events aim to foster a stronger Google Cloud Platform community, and interested developers are encouraged to pre-register due to limited space.
