The best conversations usually happen backstage. We are in the thick of #DevFest Season, with thousands of developers and Google Developer Experts hitting stages from London to Lagos. The energy globally is incredible. But for Devfest Silicon Valley, we took a different approach. I checked my camera roll from the event, and I realized I’m not in a single photo. Usually, that’s a missed opportunity. But this week, it was exactly the point. We brought together our top GDEs from across the entire Americas (North America + LATAM) to sit down with our PM leaders. These were closed-door, NDA roundtables. No cameras. No recording. Just raw, unfiltered friction logs on the gap between "cool demo" and "production reality." This is where the roadmap gets shaped. We didn't want to keep all the insights locked away. So on day 2, we set up two Creator Studios and flipped the script: We handed the mics to the GDEs. They interviewed product leaders, community builders, and each other—turning those backstage insights into content the whole world can learn from. Huge thanks to leaders like Michael Clark (Director of PM, AI Agents) Francis Ma and GDE Frank van Puffelen for leading by example and diving deep into the "Build vs. Govern" debate for AI Agents. 🥁 Shoutout to our PMs that led the private roundtables: Dmitry Lyalin,Vikas Anand, Ayo Adedeji, Joe Fernandez, Christina Lin, Ivan 🥁 Nardini, Thevi Sundaralingam, Maja Bilić, and Andrew Peynado. 🙌 And to all our GDEs that contributed across the two days in roundtables, leading workshops, conducting interviews, and much more: Austin Bennett, Ady Ngom, Carlos Alcaron, Hemanth HM, Ishan Khanna ⚡️, Huan Li, Kevin Moore, Jesse Nowlin, Martino Yovo, Sebastian Gomez, Daniel Goncharov, Lesly Zerna, Taha Bouhsine, Vikram Tiwari, and Walter Lee. I left the event tired, but full of insights on what to build next. We captured 18(!) interviews led by GDEs in the studio and will be sharing them across our channels soon. The signal-to-noise ratio in this community right now is off the charts. 📈. Final shout out to Rachel Francois Junnet Ali and Becky Phan for running the show and the amazing Americas GDE ops team Karen Acosta Parra Alvaro Mamani and Madusha Cooray for flawless execution. Let's gooo! 🚀 #DevFest #GoogleDeveloperExperts #ProductManagement #AI #Americas #Google #GDE
