PyGrunn 2016

We are proud to announce the seventh episode of the wonderful PyGrunn (http://www.pygrunn.org/) conference! We have spent a lot of effort trying to make this year's edition even better than last year's.

About
PyGrunn is the 'Python and friends' conference with a local footprint and global mindset. Firmly rooted in the open source culture it aims to provide the leading lights in advanced internet technologies a platform to inform, inspire and impress their peers. But the most important part is of course hanging out with peers. PyGrunn has a non-commercial character and tickets are just 35 euro, which is only for covering the costs of food, drinks and an already legendary t-shirt. Days chock-full of pyhon/geek/hacker fun don't come much cheaper than that! Still in doubt? Ask someone who visited a previous edition.

Speaking opportunity
Got a great Python story to tell? This is your chance to do so in front of a friendly and enthousiastic audience of over 250 Pythonistas! You can find the RFP for submitting your proposal at www.pygrunn.org (http://www.pygrunn.org/).

Location
Just as last year this year's edition will take place on May 13th at Groninger Forum (Hereplein 4-5, Groningen (https://www.google.com/maps/@53.2138293,6.5692434,3a,75y,37.81h,96.82t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1sToK90ycBeI2DrKjcQuM3-Q!2e0!6s%2F%2Fgeo1.ggpht.com%2Fcbk%3Fpanoid%3DToK90ycBeI2DrKjcQuM3-Q%26output%3Dthumbnail%26cb_client%3Dsearch.TACTILE.gps%26thumb%3D2%26w%3D392%26h%3D106%26yaw%3D156.65404%26pitch%3D0!7i13312!8i6656?hl=en-US)). So yes, once again you will be able to enjoy the talks from the comfort of a cinema chair.

Tickets
Tickets are already on sale at www.pygrunn.org (http://www.pygrunn.org/). There are only 250 tickets available and they will be sold out for sure, so don't hesitate. The 35 euro should not hold you back. Optionally, you can indicate your attendance at the PyGrunn Meetup (https://www.meetup.com/PyGrunn/events/229784254/). But don’t forget to buy a ticket as well.

Sponsors
Since PyGrunn has a non-commercial character it depends on sponsors. As always Media2B will cover a lot of the costs, and we are excited by the growing number of business sponsors. This year we're welcoming Media2B (http://www.media2b.net/), Paylogic (http://paylogic.com/), Spindle (https://wearespindle.com/), XIThing (http://www.xithing.io/), Voys (http://www.voys.nl/), Hugo (http://www.hugo.events/), Crop-r (https://www.crop-r.com/), Resello (https://www.resello.com/) en Contracts11 (http://www.contracts11.com/). Still, we would love to see more sponsors supporting the PyGrunn community. So be sure to check if your company could become a sponsor.

Spread the word and we hope to see you all at PyGrunn 2016! In the meantime follow us on Twitter (@pygrunn (https://twitter.com/pygrunn)) and www.pygrunn.org (http://www.pygrunn.org/).
