Google runs more events in Bangalore than in almost any other city outside its home campus — between its Ananta office in Marathahalli and larger venues like BIEC, the city gets a steady stream of conferences, hackathons, and hands-on labs throughout the year. Here's what's happened in 2026 so far, and what's on the calendar next.

Flagship conferences
Google I/O Connect India (July 14, BIEC) was the year's biggest — a full-day developer conference spanning AI, Android, Cloud, and Web, run as Bengaluru's own regional extension of Google I/O itself.
Hackathons
- Google I/O Connect Bengaluru Hackathon (July 11) — an invite-only, DeepMind-mentored build sprint on Gemma 4, Antigravity, and Omni Flash, timed to the same week as that year's I/O releases.
- Grand Finale Hackathon at Google Ananta (August 8) — the culmination of a nationwide AI House chapter network, with the top 100 teams from across India demoing live on Google's own campus.
Hands-on labs and briefings at Ananta
- Google AI Masterclass Bengaluru (July 27, Google Office – Ananta) — an executive-level briefing and live demo of Gemini Enterprise, plus a fireside chat and customer showcase.
- Google Agent Labs: Building Multi-Agent Systems with ADK (June 21, Ozone Bengaluru) — the kickoff of the AI Agent Builder Series 2026 with Google for Developers × AI House Bangalore, hands-on with Google's Agent Development Kit.
- Basecamp × Google (August 7, Google Ananta) — a closed-cohort session for founders on AI in the search era and building for YouTube discovery, with Google's India Customer Solutions and Growth Partnerships teams.
