Why it matters

Discovery is happening across more surfaces — but community remains the primary engine where ideas turn into shipped products. Google and GDG are present in every step of that journey.

The biggest growth opportunity is an expanding community

When builders come together around real tools and real challenges, the distance between "I want to build this" and "I shipped this" collapses. That's what GDG Tulsa creates.

The GDG Tulsa Formula

Put builders at the center of learning.

Hands-on workshops, live coding sessions, and mentorship from Google Developer Experts — not just slides.

Connect people to the best Google tools.

Early access to Google developer programs, Gemini API credits, and Cloud sandbox environments for members.

Ship things that matter.

Every event ends with something deployed — a demo, a prototype, or a pull request. We measure by what gets built.

Build a network that compounds.

GDG members have gone on to join Google, start companies, and found GDG chapters of their own. The network grows with every event.

For developers, by developers

Every builder in GDG Tulsa started somewhere. Whether you're shipping your first Gemini app or your fiftieth, there's a seat at the table.

The next era of building is already here

When you nail the AI foundations with Gemini, Vertex AI, and Firebase today, you remove the barrier between your ideas and your next shipped product.
