DevFest 2019
GDG Coimbatore
It is one of the milestone event for us. To backtrack the ideation of this DevFest happened about 82 days. When the call for speakers went up we received around 45 registrations and we reached out to 20 speakers keeping in mindset diversity both in gender and in the topics. We heard your feedback from the previous events and we tested the two track format for beginners and intermediates, of course every experiment has it’s own leanings we would tweak this format in the future events from the feedback heard from this time. With the to and fro emails, for the speakers, sponsors the plan is set.
and the rest is known we got amazing response from the participants we got around 300 registrations, we tried pushing forward to bring more women in tech to the event though we have long way to go we got 66 women in tech this year including volunteers and speakers. A glimpse of the participant distribution.
