Tech conferences are back, baby.
At least according to Google, which on Wednesday announced that its annual developer conference, Google I/O, is scheduled to take place on May 11 and 12, 2022.
“We’ll be back live from Shoreline Amphitheater for this year’s #GoogleIO,” wrote Google CEO Sundar Pichau. “Join us online May 11-12”
This year’s Google I/O website also makes clear that, unlike in 2021, 2022’s conference will be in person — albeit with some form of accompanying online stream.
“Join I/O live from Shoreline and online May 11-12, 2022,” notes the site.
Google I/O was straight up canceled in 2020, as the coronavirus pandemic ravaged the world, “out of concern for the health and safety of our developers, employees, and local communities—and in line with ‘shelter in place’ requirements by the local Bay Area government.”
This year, apparently, will be different. Assuming, of course, no surprises get in the way.
