Welcome: Meet & Greet with Luis de Sousa
19:00 - 19:55:
Python: The gateway drug to DuckDB with Dr Petey Crous

• Python has an incredible array of data analytics libraries... but what if you could still keep your business logic in that simple, declarative, SQL syntax and still have all the flexibility of Python? Why not come hear about how DuckDB replaced other libraries - such as pandas, polars, re... and reduced my Python and SQL code. You might just leave with some nifty ideas about how it can be used to simplify your data processes and workflows.

20:00 - 21:00:
Refreshments and Networking and Climbing
Please note that CityROCK closes at 21:30.
