What we’re about

Anybody that appreciates the PyData/NumFOCUS mission - Bringing the world of open source data science & scientific users together! - is greatly appreciated to join our meetup group and if you can and want, also help out in some way to make our meetups happen and great!

We wish to have interesting talks in a friendly and informal setting with snacks/food and beer, so that people have a reason to stay and get to know each other.

Also, we aim to be an accessible, community-driven meetup (and eventually conference), with novice to advanced level presentations. PyData tutorials and talks bring attendees the latest project features along with cutting-edge use cases.

Please contact us if you can provide a room, interesting talks, food, drinks, or alike. You or whom you are associated with could also become an official sponsor (with a little banner, link, and mention during meetups) of our group!

To centrally, efficiently, and transparently manage suggestions, current tasks/problems, and just in general the continuous organization/milestones of individual meetups as well as the overall group, we have a GitHub repo.


PYDATA

PyData brings together both users and developers of data analysis tools to share ideas and learn from each other. The goals are to provide data science enthusiasts, across various domains, a place to discuss how best to apply languages and tools to the challenges of data management, processing, analytics, and visualization. We are focused around the Python ecosystem, but are also open to other languages and relevant topics that may help to better solve the evolving challenges in data management, processing, analytics, and visualization.

PyData groups, events, and conferences aim to provide a venue for users across all the various domains of data analysis to share their experiences and their techniques. PyData is organized by NumFOCUS.org, a 501(c)3 non-profit in the United States.

    Open Source Python Sprint: document AI via Docling

    QuantCo, Kreuzstrasse 26, Zürich, CH

    We will extend the list of participants so please do sign up for the waiting list if you're interested!

    ---

    Docling has been making waves by being a very popular Python library for enabling various kinds of document types to be ingested by AI models.

    During this event, some of Docling's core developers, Panos Vagenas and Michele Dolfi from IBM Research, will assist you in contributing to docling!

    Concretely, every participant will be given open issues to work on. We will of course also have drinks and food, kindly sponsored by QuantCo.

    As always, we welcome new contributors. For beginners in Open Source, we will have a beginners' table where you can make your first pull request on GitHub.

    - 18.00: Welcome, networking, drinks and food
    - 18.30: Sponsor presentation, docling presentation
    - 19.00: Coding
    - 21.30: End of the event, drinks nearby for those who want to join

    Preparation
    You'll need to have a GitHub account, bring your own laptop and and have a development environment already set up. You can create the docling development environment following their instructions.
