What did you like best about the event?
The energy, general brightness, and ease of the event. Lots of large conference centers can come off as dark, cavernous, and depressing. This was not the case.
What could the organizers do to improve the event?
The opening day keynote was disappointing, with no ability to seat everyone and wifi issues.

It was a jam packed event!
What did you like best about the event?
I was excited that the event was in person and many people were in attendance.
What could the organizers do to improve the event?
Lunch was not great; 2019, the food court places were open and free, which seems to work better than box lunches. Also, starting the concert at 6 pm required many of us to cancel important dinners. Why so early and the venue was not great.

Good. I would have liked to see more activities and more people.
What did you like best about the event?
Well-organized event. I would have liked the Google employee to be more interactive and personable than act like Divas.
What could the organizers do to improve the event?
Change venue from San Francisco to LV. Moscone Center is a confusing place to navigate. There were a ton of helpers who didn't know how to help.

Learnt a lot of new things about GCP
What did you like best about the event?
Duet AI and all the Gen AI presentations. Meeting with the GCP teams. The willingness of the Google teams to work with us, design, and deploy new requirements as per the customer demands. I learned a lot of new stuff about how GCP works internally.
What could the organizers do to improve the event?
The evening event could surely be better...Chainsmokers set the bar high... Food could be more distributed around the site, rather than everyone walking out to the garden.

Very informative and hands-on at the Innovation Hive regarding product testing.
What did you like best about the event?
The ability to test some products myself live -- very hands-on. It was beneficial to have staff guide you as you venture out to try the new developments in the Innovation Hive space. I also liked that it could be done in 5 minutes instead of a 90-minute training session. 5 to 15 minutes for that kind of exercise is perfect.
What could the organizers do to improve the event?
Although the event may have seemed a bit chaotic, I'd say most opportunities lie organizing better food and beverage service as ande quality of the refreshments ithe speakers at some sessions had muted mic sound and needed it amplified through their mic settings.

Google Cloud Next 23 was a transformative experience that helped me envision a future filled with cloud possibilities.
What did you like best about the event?
I liked the iA trail and the usage demo the most. Lots of news that I intend to use in my projects.
What could the organizers do to improve the event?
I thought it lacked a bit of animation in the style of Google events in 2022. I think it's interesting to revisit that. Unfortunately, I couldn't attend the face-to-face event, but the online event lacked that.

This was the first time I attended the Next conference. I was a speaker, so the speaker help desk was beneficial. I participated in a couple of interesting topics. Overall, it was a learning experience for me. I highly recommend people to join this conference to know and understand the plans and releases from Google, which is always ahead of the market/time.
What did you like best about the event?
I was a speaker, so the speaker help desk was really helpful. The sessions were quite informative.
What could the organizers do to improve the event?
The food wasn't that good. Maybe include some more vegetarian options in the future.
