Google Cloud Innovators and Community help you achieve

Google Cloud is committed to provide software engineers and other technical practitioners with the tools and information they need to influence the development of future technologies, regardless of their level of expertise. One of the ways that we are accomplishing this goal is through enhancing the overall quality of the developer experience provided by our community initiatives.

The Google Cloud Innovators program and the Google Cloud Community have joined forces to form a partnership that will result in the creation of a one-stop shop that will better meet your requirements for learning and developing your skills in the cloud.

As an Innovator, you will have access to live events that are only available to Innovators, weekly digests of the most recent news about Google Cloud, and free learning credits that may be used to access Google Cloud Skills Boost labs and other learning resources. While you’re in the Google Cloud Community, you can also interact with people from all around the world to ask questions, work with others to discover solutions, and tackle the most difficult problems together.

We hope that with this new relationship, we will be able to make it even simpler for you to locate information, create connections with your peers, and participate in live sessions at any time of the day or night. and receive the assistance you need from our team of knowledgeable professionals.

The following is a list of the most important advantages that you may anticipate gaining from this partnership:

1. An improved experience for the user, including verified status

You will now have a verified status symbol added to your Google Cloud community profile if you have been designated as an Innovator. This will help you stand out from the crowd and remove the element of uncertainty when it comes to networking with your contemporaries and locating specialists. As you rise through the ranks of the community, the new verification will provide you access to unique events and resources.

2. The availability of individualized learning opportunities, private live discussions, and resources

We have more than quadrupled the amount of live events, giving you more chances to learn and get practical experience at a time that is convenient for you regardless of where you are in the world. Because of the careful curation that went into creating these live events, you will have no trouble finding the proper sessions to help you achieve your objectives.

Access to The Overwhelmed Person’s Guide to Google Cloud is a weekly email that is developed just for Innovators and contains the most recent information from all areas of Google Cloud. Helping you make sense of everything going on in the cloud and accelerating the rate at which you can put what you’ve learned into practice.

4. Have your efforts and contributions acknowledged

Your participation in the Community forum, your contributions to the knowledge base, and the fact that you are either leading or participating in a Community event will earn you recognition in the future.
