POV: You just learned about #HydTrailblazin and want MOAR.

Hi Ohana,

You just heard about Hyderabad Trailblazin' and you're as excited, passionate and interested as we ( Salesforce Hyderabad Community ) are about this Dreamin' chapter that will unfold in June.

Here's the story so far.

Inception :

Salesforce Dreamin' Events started in India in 2017 with the vibrant JDF aka (JaipurDevFest). This Mega Community event was followed by India Dreamin' and then came the Community-Driven Extravaganza - Hyderabad Trailblazin' in June, 2018.

Watch this quick video of one of my favourite people I've met through Salesforce Community - Kiran manyala (Head, APAC Technical Audience Relations at Salesforce ) featuring Astro from 2018. This gives us a deeper context on the inception of Trailblazer Community-driven conferences in India.

Covid happened and after a lull of few years, It led to another wave of amazing events like Women In Tech Dreamin' Salesforce Architect Summit INDIA DREAMIN MC 2 MuleDreamin and now coming soon Bharat Dreamin' and Bengaluru Dreamin' .

Here are a few that I could recollect and also there were other Big Trailhead events spearheaded by Kavindra Patel Vishwa Vikas Dagala Satya Sekhar Chegondi Aditya Naag Topalli Jerry George Thomas and team in the form of DevWeekend, Journey to Salesforce, Developer Days (2022 and 2023) and also #TrailheadX which is now #TrailblazerDX.

I was fortunate to attend many of the above mentioned conferences along with Salesforce Hyderabad Community Leadership team comprising of Swati Taunk Roshan K. Sunil Kumar Taruvu Pradeep kumar ?? Shovan Mandal Sanket Kumar Bala Gangadhar Vadlamuri Satya Sriram Varun Vipparty . After co-organizing two years of combined Trailblazer Community meetups (15+) and the 3rd edition of MC 2 and months of introspection, planning and discussions and also learnings from our past conference experiences, We decided to go ahead and bring Hyderabad Trailblazin' back in 2024.

Fast forward to 2024 we onboarded our previous core team members R Sreenivas & Nirvik Mitter to the #HydTrailblazin Team and set forth on this endeavour.

Now we're officially 6-weeks-out from the event,

Here's a 6-step Guide to all things #HydTrailblazin:

1) Hyderabad Trailblazin' 2024 First Glimpse -
