Siddhant Agarwal

Hello, I'm Sid Agarwal, currently leading Developer Communities for APAC at Neo4j. Formerly, I pioneered India's first fintech community as the 'Developer Relations Lead' at Open Financial Technologies. Prior to that, I spearheaded community efforts as a Program Manager with Google's Developer Relations team in India, overseeing programs like Developer Student Clubs, TensorFlow User Groups, Google Developer Groups, and Google Developer Experts. In 2019, I collaborated with the Ministry of Electronics & Information Technology, Government of India, to launch 'Build for Digital India,' engaging 7,000+ students in solving India's challenges.
I'm passionate about design thinking and enjoy mentoring startups to enhance their UX and designs. Recognized as one of ACM's Distinguished Speakers, my career of roughly a decade is dedicated to building, scaling, and growing communities in India, launching ed-tech initiatives, fostering design innovation, and contributing to the startup ecosystem.
In 2021, I was nominated as a finalist for the CMX Community Industry Awards for my role in community building. As an avid public speaker, I've shared insights at over 1,000 national and international forums, reaching 300K+ individuals.
