There are plenty of good reasons why Google Cloud Next is the year’s most ambitious, entertaining, and informative technology showcase of the year. As a Google Cloud Marquee Sponsor, we at SADA love attending because we get to meet the minds behind the latest and greatest innovations on Google Cloud. Here are our top 5 reasons to get excited about Google Cloud Next 2024, April 9-12.
1. Location, location, location
This year, Google Cloud Next is undergoing a change of scenery. After many years in the Bay Area, the conference is moving to the city of spectacles, slot machines, and the world-famous Strip, Las Vegas, Nevada. In a city purpose built for after-hours entertainment, the conference promises ample opportunities to enjoy world-class shows, enjoy fine dining in the restaurants of celebrity chefs, or take a break from the demos and keynotes poolside, with a refreshing beverage close at hand.
2. SADA’s Cloud Concierge Lounge
SADA’s presence at the gathering of cloud innovators will be centered around our Cloud Concierge Lounge, where you will have access to the experts who are creating the future of generative AI, cloud security, productivity & collaboration, and infrastructure & app modernization. This year we’re focusing on mission impact–all the ways we can work together to serve the core purpose of your organization. We’re especially excited to learn more about the ambitions and goals of our current and future customers. Be sure to stop by to introduce yourself!
3. GenAI
The age of generative AI is here. And by here, we mean at Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas. Google Cloud Next 2024 promises to offer one of the greatest concentrations of generative AI talent on the planet, with an abundance of demos, panels, and sessions exploring what’s possible with large language models, prompt engineering, and deep integration with productivity & collaboration tools.
We anticipate that many of the innovations we’ll be seeing in this space in coming years will be able to trace their origin to the conversations that happen on the floor and in breakout rooms at Google Cloud Next. If you’re invested in developing GenAI solutions for your organization, you’ll want to be part of those conversations. We can’t wait to learn about what’s next for this growing set of platforms and solutions.
4. Keynotes, deep dives, and can’t-miss sessions
Google Cloud Next 2024 promises a bounty of options for anyone who wants to learn more about every aspect of the cloud, from powerful new Duet AI capabilities to the latest intelligence on evolving cyberattacks. No matter what aspect of the cloud is most compelling to you, you’ll find sessions dedicated to the latest thinking and newly launched solutions in every domain.
We’ve found that one of the best parts of the Google Cloud Next experience is stumbling upon a session about something that you may not have given much thought, but that changes your perspective on what’s possible in the cloud. Our recommendation is to identify your can’t-miss sessions, but leave a little time in your conference schedule open to just wander into presentations and demos on topics you know little about. By the time you leave the conference, your mind should buzz with ideas.
5. Networking!
One of the things we love most about Google Cloud Next is the opportunity to connect outside the official program. You may run into a former colleague while waiting for the elevator, or meet your next customer while getting coffee. It’s these casual, happenstance meetings that really fill out the conference experience and lead to great achievements down the road. Of course, SADA will be there to facilitate these sorts of connections, and we can’t wait to hear about the breakthroughs you achieved.
Register today for Google Cloud Next 2024 with SADA. We look forward to seeing you at booth 1110!
