Google Software Tech in Open Digital Ecosystems

In the software development world, free access to innovative technologies in areas as varied as Linux, Android, Chrome, Kubernetes or TensorFlow have broken down the traditional barriers that restrict learning, enabling the development of open innovation ecosystems, which represent a creative force surpassing that of any company in the world.

Google Developers Relations runs a number of coordinated programs that promote the creation of networks of developer communities, the creation and publication of expert content, as well as diversity and inclusion, which are essential in order to develop global technologies.

The concept of communities of developers, which is key to all these programs, is based on single users, of exponential impact, who extend the reach of technological activities by organizing communities around them: motivated by their own curiosity and interest, they organize online and face-to-face activities, where they explore knowledge of software technologies and promote learning and publishing on these technologies among peers.
