This year's Faculty Summit
23. September 2008
Recently we hosted more than 90 distinguished faculty members from roughly 60 North American universities to the Googleplex for the
4th Annual North American Faculty Summit
.
This annual event is both an opportunity for us to showcase our latest research and products, and a chance to deepen our relationship with the academic community. Faculty have the chance to network with colleagues and students-turned-Googlers, and to learn about opportunities for collaboration with Google.
Some of this year's highlights:
Roundtables - small group discussions with senior engineers
API demos - introducing applications of our most popular APIs: Google Data, Open Social, Geo, and Android
A technical panel I hosted, "Computing at Scale: Challenges and Opportunities" - comprised of Googlers Rob Pike and Urs Hoelzle as well as Jeanette Wing, Assistant Director for Computer & Information Science and Engineering (CISE) at the National Science Foundation, and Ed Lazowska, Professor of Computer Science at the University of Washington
Visits from our CEO, Eric Schmidt, who dropped by the opening cocktail reception, plus founders Larry & Sergey, who mingled at the reception and conducted the closing Q&A
You can watch videos of the talks on our
University Relations website
