What we’re about
The Indianapolis Python Meetup (“IndyPy”) is a leading national group promoting the Python programming language and connecting the Python community. Organized by Six Feet Up, IndyPy draws Python enthusiasts from the entire Midwest (and beyond via Zoom) for regular events. In 2022, we celebrated 15 years of success with 2,300 members.
We are learners, employers, and enthusiasts of all kinds. All skill levels are welcome: if you are interested in Python, we are interested in you! Our goal is to create an inclusive, respectful environment that invites participation from people of all races, ethnicities, genders, ages, abilities, religions, and sexual orientations.
Got something to say at an upcoming IndyPy event? Submit your talk here: https://www.papercall.io/indypy.
We also feature both single and multi-track options of speakers on a specific subject related to Python. Some of the topics we have covered so far include:
--Machine Learning, AI, Genetic Programming
--Web Framework Shootout
--Automating Processes with Python
--Django for Beginners
--Data Science with Python
--Testing & Debugging
--Python for Beginners

The November edition of IndyPy will showcase two expert presentations on how data science and AI are driving meaningful change in health equity and resource distribution. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to learn how Python and other technologies can be used to make a tangible social impact.
AGENDA
7 - 7:15pm: Announcements and Introductions
7:15 - 7:45pm: “Place Matters, Policy Matters” by Amrutha Pulikottil
Amrutha will explore how data science can be used to understand the health landscape by legislative district. This session will demonstrate how data science algorithms combined with data visualization tools help citizens and policymakers understand the social, economic, and environmental factors that contribute to health disparities.Using a real-world example from the Virginia Department of Health’s Office of Health Equity, Amrutha will show how Python can be leveraged to advocate for policies that promote better health outcomes in your community. You’ll leave with inspiration and practical insights for building similar tools in your own state.
7:45 - 8:15pm: "Mapping the Need (AI for Good!)" by Zach Cardwell
The United States stands out as one of the most philanthropic nations globally, consistently outgiving many developed countries on a per capita basis. Despite this immense generosity, a critical question remains: How do we ensure that funds reach those in need effectively?Zach will guide us through the extensive data resources available from the Federal government and explore how AI, powered by Python, can help close distribution gaps. Discover neighborhood-level data that is freely accessible and learn how modern AI technologies can drive equitable, efficient and impactful resource allocation.
8:15 - 8:30pm: Door Prizes
8:30 - 9pm: Networking & General Discussion
Guests are more than welcome to attend, but please have each person RSVP on their own Meetup account.
