The Google Games 2014 Kick-Off
April 21, 2014
Spring has sprung and, along with sunshine and flowers, The Google Games 2014 is sweeping across the United States. The Google Games brings together Googlers and current college students for a day of fun and challenging competition. Student teams are tested in everything from trivia to coding and must complete challenges designed by Google engineers to earn points and attempt to reign supreme.
Team spirit and mental mettle abound and with this year’s theme of “Greats of the 1980s” the Games are set to be totally radical!
After kicking off on March 29th in Washington, DC, The Google Games visited Boulder, Seattle, Atlanta, Pittsburgh, and New York City with seven more events scheduled to take place across North America in the coming weeks.
Stay tuned for more fun photos and the list of champions from each of the Games’ sites and in the meantime, be sure to check out
