What we’re about
PyData is an educational program of NumFOCUS, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization in the United States. PyData provides a forum for the international community of users and developers of data analysis tools to share ideas and learn from each other. The global PyData network promotes discussion of best practices, new approaches, and emerging technologies for data management, processing, analytics, and visualization. PyData communities approach data science using many languages, including (but not limited to) Python, Julia, and R.
The PyData Code of Conduct governs this meetup. To discuss any issues or concerns relating to the code of conduct or the behavior of anyone at a PyData meetup, please contact NumFOCUS Executive Director Leah Silen (+1 512-222-5449; leah@numfocus.org) or the group organizer.

Call for Proposals
If you're passionate about sharing your knowledge on how you utilize NumFocus projects in your day-to-day job or hobby project, please consider submitting a proposal to the conference!Benefits of Submitting a Proposal
- Learning opportunity - Personal & Professional growth (public speaking)
- Eminence - Build your credibility & brand
- Tickets to the conference!
- Network with industry peers and thought leaders
What kind of proposals can I submit?
1. Talks: 30-minute sessions including time for Q&A
2. Tutorials: 90 minute hands-on sessions (classroom style
session)What makes a good proposal?
- The topic (the what) and why it is interesting
- The audience to whom the talk is addressed
- The takeaway for the audience - how they will benefit from attending this talk/tutorial
- The type of talk (lots of maths, hands-on, etc) and possibly the tone (light-hearted, informative, etc.)
- Any background knowledge needed to understand the talk/tutorial
- Approximate time breakdowns of how the material will be covered, e.g. minutes 0-10: X1, minutes 10-15: Y1, etc.
What are the common pitfalls?
- Overly long proposals: Keep it simple and clear.
- Future work: the core content of the talk should already be shaped, and you should be able to describe it in your proposal.
- Sales pitches: We are a community of creators and users of open-source scientific computing tools. You can reference your closed-source product or platform, but the audience will find the talk more interesting if they can try your techniques with the open source PyData stack.
- Repeated talks: We have a strong preference for new talks, and new speakers. If your talk is already available online, it is unlikely to be accepted for the conference.
