The NET+ GCP community reconvenes for an exciting project pitch session, taking over the usual Tech Jam slot. This event marks the culmination of efforts sparked by the August Strat Call, where participants learned about the Rapid Innovation Team (RIT) initiative and began formulating their project ideas (recording).
During this session, members of the NET+ GCP community will have the opportunity to present their project proposals to the NET+ GCP Service Advisory Board (SAB) and Chris Daugherty from Google. Each pitch will showcase innovative ideas that leverage GCP to address critical needs within higher education institutions and potentially benefit the broader academic community.
Presenters will outline their project's objectives, potential impact, and how it aligns with RIT's goal of creating impactful prototypes for the research and education sector. The audience can expect to hear a diverse range of concepts, from AI-driven solutions to data management tools to advising systems and beyond.
After this session, the SAB and Chris will vote to select the top three projects. These finalists' ideas will be presented to the RIT at the face-to-face SAB meeting at Google's NYC offices on October 10.
This pitch session represents a pivotal moment for participants to transform their innovative concepts into tangible plans with the potential for realization through RIT's collaborative engagement. It's an unparalleled chance for higher education institutions to drive technological advancements in their field with the support of Google's expertise and resources.
