ABOUT OUR SPEAKERS:

Jonette Jimenez

I'm an Account Manager at Google Cloud with 10 years of experience in the tech industry, helping customers innovate and scale with Google. I’m a firm believer in building trust to create strong and lasting relationships both professionally and personally.

I am originally from Manila but I have since lived and worked in Singapore and I am now based in London. Moving between these cities has not always been easy. Starting afresh is not to be underestimated but the connections and friends I have made in each country have become instrumental in forming my path and taking me to where I am today.

I look forward to sharing my insights and to hearing from others. Having a support system has been critical for me and I am hoping I can be a part of that for you.
