LAST YEAR

Last year, PRESS PLAY 2026 had 190+ participant sign-ups, with 17 teams and final 13 submissions!

The event was organized by DCS (Digital Creation Society) and GDG (Google Developer Group), with over 20 final event student volunteers. Thank you!

Thank you to everyone who pitched in to make this even happen! Special thanks to Gabriela Yanez (our community coordinator), Christian Wilkens, our judges (Nuno Vaz, Nickas Vorrink, Marcel Poelking), and our workshop speakers (Dr. Svetlana Meissner and Vinita Silaparasetty)

Kudos to Student Media Production for helping out with pictures and microphones, the Baking Club for the awesome sweets, and to Makers Club for attending our open booths!

Last but not least, thank you to GDG for being our partner in crime! Check out their instagram below:
