Intro to Google Cloud and AI/ML with Google

Come enjoy some pizza uptown and Google will give us an introduction to their Cloud Platform. Google Cloud is a great tool for Space Apps Challenge hackers to have going into the hackathon, as it will streamline the development of your projects so that you can focus on the core concepts and not the project infrastructure. Hackathon and bootcamp participants will receive free Cloud credits! https://cloud.google.com/startups 6:30pm - Doors open / Food & Drinks7:00pm - Opening remarks from event organizers7:15pm - Google Cloud Platform 1018:00pm - Break8:10pm - Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning with Google8:55pm - Networking Tejpaul Bhatia, Startup Program Lead for Google Cloud NY and former 3 time entrepreneur will join us and give an overview of the Google Cloud platform and a primer on Machine Learning.  He will also be able to answer any questions you might have leading up to the hackathon. The Space Apps NYC Bootcamp is a series of workshops designed to connect Space Apps Challenge hackers to tools and information which will prepare them for the hackathon. The bootcamp has two main themes: technology and science. We organize workshops run by our tech sponsors in which hackers are onboarded onto software tools and cloud platforms meant to improve the quality of their projects. We also organize science talks in which scientists from NASA and local academic institutions give in depth presentations on space science topics related to this year’s Space Apps Challenge. Having attended the Space Apps NYC Bootcamp, hackers will be better equipped to choose a challenge, form a team, and then hit the ground running when the hackathon begins!
