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](mailto:leah@numfocus.org)) or the group organizer.
We run monthly meetups at changing locations and have organized six conferences, in 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2019, and 2022. You can see our latest meetups, submit a talk idea and read PyData blog posts on our site : https://berlin.pydata.org.

The Lineup for the eveningTalk 1: Extract structured product & deal information from PDFs on scale via LLM
Abstract: Bonial shows hundreds of thousands of offers from local brick-and-mortar retailers on its platform, a subset of this content is retrieved from PDF files. In this talk I’ll explain how we leverage LLM to parse unstructured PDF files to create content on our platform.Speaker: Philipp Johannis has been part of Bonial for 12 years. He established and leads the Data Department, which consists of multiple Analytics, Engineering & Data Science teams, and is currently serving as Head of Data. He focuses on improving the data platform and enabling and supporting the development of various data driven products such as personalisation and traffic management.
Talk 2: Airweave, an Open-Source Tool To Turn Any App Into Accessible Agent Knowledge
Abstract: The talk will be an introduction to Airweave, which is an open-source Python tool that helps agent developers turn app data into accessible knowledge for AI agents. It connects to any app, database, URL, or API and structures the data for retrieval. Airweave automates authentication, ingestion, enrichment, mapping, and syncing to vector stores and graph databases of choice. It has a search layer for agents out-of-the-box and allows extension of the platform with minimal code. Developers can use Airweave via our web UI, REST API, or SDKs.Speakers: Lennert Jansen and Rauf Akdemir are the creators of Airweave AI. Lennert is an AI Engineer & Researcher with a background in Applied Statistics and Deep Learning for NLP. Before Airweave, he worked on AI & Bayesian Statistics at Amazon, IBM, and the University of Amsterdam. Rauf is a CS graduate from Technical University of Delft, with strong engineering experience in productionising ML & data infrastructure in both start-ups and enterprise.
Lightning talks
There will be slots for 2-3 Lightning Talks (3-5 Minutes for each).
