Dear Madam, Sir,

It’s an honor to meet you on 10/10 at Google Cloud Summit. The theme of this Summit is 10x thinking. 10x is our innovation philosophy that empowers you to solve major problems and realize big goals by not doing it 10% better, but 10x.

At Google, we have plenty of 10x examples to share. We do so on the summit. As our special guest at the Summit, you are part of the exclusive executive Leaders Connect track. This track offers the possibility to meet with other IT Leaders to gain new insights on how to achieve customer led-innovation, advance your digital transformation and use Cloud as a lever for innovation and security. This personal content hub gives you a short preview of the summit, and contains some useful information.

I am looking forward to meeting you on october 10.

Kind regards,

Bas Rookhuijzen,
Head of Marketing, Google Cloud Benelux
