Introducing PyCon US Co-Chair, and Future Conference Chair: Jon Banafato!:
“Hi folks! I’m Jon, and I’ve been a Python community organizer for the past decade and change. You may recognize me from my work behind the scenes at PyGotham, volunteering at other Python conferences, or talking shop with other community organizers. I’m excited to be working with Elaine and the rest of the staff, organizers, and volunteers for the next few PyCon US conferences. Feel free to reach out to share your thoughts about the conference, and I look forward to seeing everyone back in Pittsburgh next year!”
PyCon US 2025 Website is Live
You can now head over to the PyCon US 2025 website for all the conference details and more information about our sponsorship program.
Our design for this year’s event draws inspiration from the local fare of Pittsburgh infused with pops of colors and dynamic elements that reflect the uniqueness and character of our community.
We’re excited to collaborate with designers Malek Jerbi and Hamza Haj Taieb from Tunisia, whose illustrations and designs brought the PyCon US 2025 website to life. The design is brought together with the coordination of Georgi K and implemented by YupGup.
PyCon US Call for Proposals is Now Open
PyCon US 2025’s Call for Proposals is officially open for Talks, Tutorials, Posters, and Charlas! The deadline to submit for all tracks is December 19, 2024, 11:59 PM ET. You can view what time that is for you locally on our CfP countdown.
We need beginner, intermediate, and advanced proposals on all sorts of topics— and beginner, intermediate, and advanced speakers to give said presentations. You don’t need to be a 20-year veteran who has spoken at dozens of conferences. On all fronts, we need all types of people. Our community is comprised of a diverse set of people with unique skill sets, and we want our conference program to be a true reflection of that diversity.
For the new and first-time speakers, be sure to take advantage of the speaker mentorship program where you can be matched with experienced speakers who can help you with crafting your proposal. Check out the info on our Proposal Mentorship Program page.
For more information on where and how to submit your proposal, visit the Proposal Guidelines page on the PyCon US 2025 website.
Hatchery Program – Coming Soon!
The PyCon US Hatchery is an effort to establish a path for the introduction of new tracks, summits, and demos at PyCon US. We are still finalizing the details of this program, so please stay tuned for more news about the PyCon US Hatchery 🐣 and start thinking of ideas you might want to contribute!
