Google brings two cutting-edge technology conferences to the Philippines and sponsors app developer challenge

As part of ongoing effort to support technology innovation in the Philippines, Google will host our first annual g|Philippines event in Manila from August 3-4, 2012.

Day 1 will be for marketers, webmasters, and entrepreneurs, with a focus on technical and non-technical presentations on Google products. Day 2 will be for university students and faculty, with a focus on Google-sponsored university programs and internships. And g|Philippines isn’t just about Google—Google also wants to showcase Pinoy talent. If one has created or built something cool using a Google product, that person can tell Google about it while registering and might get the chance to present at g|Philippines!
