🇨🇿 Picture a Pythonic Prague
To be a part of EuroPython is to be a part of something greater than the sum of its parts. Our community is fortunate to include a wealth of talent and a diversity of skills, and nowhere is this more obvious than in the design and production of the website.
We’re hugely thankful for the work of Patrick and Raquel in coordinating the brand new design, look and feel for this year’s iteration of our presence on the web.
EuroPython’s peripatetic conference journey through the cultural capitals of Europe is an opportunity for us to celebrate our diverse heritage, history and cultures. This year’s design reflects our Bohemian location in the Czech Republic and we hope you enjoy finding subtle (and not so subtle) aspects of the website that acknowledge and respect our wonderful host city of Prague.
Our CFP finished on Sunday, 26 March 2023 and we received a record breaking 556 proposals beating 2022 by a large margin. 🎉
Community Voting is currently underway. We invite all eligible voters to cast your votes by Friday 14 April AoE and show us what YOU would like to see at EuroPython 2023! Your vote brings a plurality and diversity of voices to the decision making process; and your feedback is an important ingredient in this refinement and curation process. In 2022, we had a total of 24,000 votes and hope to reach 40,000 votes this year. Cast your votes here: https://ep2023.europython.eu/voting
We have also begun the panel review of the proposals. We received almost 100 reviewer applications and are grateful and overjoyed with the community’s enthusiasm and support for sharing their insights and expertise!
🗣️ Keynote announcement - Sophie Wilson
We are delighted and honoured to announce Sophie Wilson has agreed to keynote at this year's EuroPython. It is not an understatement to say that every one of us, whether we realise it or not, has benefitted from Sophie's contributions to the field of computing.
Since her teenage years, Sophie has designed and built microprocessor based systems. Early projects included a system for counting translucent drops of liquid and detecting spun fibre machinery breakdowns; while in her first university vacation she developed an automated cow-feeder.
After university she joined Acorn Computers Ltd, where she designed the Acorn System 1, coding the operating system in binary before designing and implementing Acorn Assembler, Acorn MOS and BASIC. She, and her Acorn colleague Steve Furber, took less than a week to design and implement the prototype of the BBC Microcomputer, winning Acorn the contract for the BBC's Computer Literacy Project. Sophie designed the operating system and designed and implemented BBC BASIC for a succession of processors. Anyone alive in Europe in the 1980s will have encountered her work, such was the ubiquity of the BBC Microcomputer, and BBC BASIC is rightly celebrated as an example of a powerful programming language that is also easy for beginner coders to learn (not unlike another programming language with which we're all familiar).
She and Furber went on to co-design the ARM processor, powering Acorn's computers during the 1990s and virtually every mobile phone and tablet in the world today – 200 billion sales of ARM powered chips (as of July 2022). Acorn's CEO at the time, Hermann Hauser, recalls that "while IBM spent months simulating their instruction sets on large mainframes, Sophie did it all in her brain." MicroPython, CircuitPython and Snek all target ARM processors, and most modern Apple Macs run on chips based upon the ARM design. There's a good chance you're reading this announcement on a machine running an ARM processor based on Sophie’s design.
As if that were not enough, as a founder at Element 14, Sophie went on to develop the Firepath processor, widely used in the telecommunications industry. Broadcom acquired Element 14 in 2000.
Sophie is a Broadcom Fellow and Distinguished Engineer, a Fellow of the Royal Society, a Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering, a Distinguished Fellow of the British Computer Society, a Fellow of the Women’s Engineering Society, an honorary Fellow of Selwyn College, Cambridge, an honorary Fellow of the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) and an honorary Fellow of the Institution of Engineering Designers (HonFIED). She has an honorary doctorate of science from Cambridge University and is a Commander of the British Empire (CBE).
👩🏫 Speaker Mentorship
We ran a One-to-One Speaker Mentorship Programme to support our first time speakers and anyone else wanting support and representation at EuroPython. We successfully matched all 37 mentees with a mentor. Thank you, every mentor who is giving back to the community!
We also ran an Ask Me Anything workshop about the CFP as part of the Mentorship Programme. In case you missed it, you can catch up here: EuroPython 2023 Mentorship Programme - Ask me Anything about the CFP:
Speaker Placement Programme
For most new speakers, speaking at a conference for the first time can be a bit intimidating. We also understand that not all of our mentees make it to EuroPython. Part of the support we would like to provide to our mentees is to help them find opportunities to speak at a local event or meetup.
If you are an event/ meetup organiser looking for speakers, please fill in the form and we would be happy to introduce our mentees to you if we believe there’s a match.
🕸️ WASM Summit
WebAssembly (abbreviated to WASM) is an important new open technology: a binary instruction format for a virtual machine. Think of it as a new, secure and performant portable compilation target that runs both in browsers and elsewhere the virtual machine runs.
Python (thanks to Pyodide) and MicroPython can both be compiled to WASM, and with the advent of projects like PyScript, Zython and others, Python is making important and innovative inroads into the world of WebAssembly.
In a first for EuroPython, we’re working with members of the community to run a summit that aims to bring together maintainers and users of Python with WebAssembly. The summit is a place to discuss the state of this ecosystem, existing challenges and ongoing work. If you are attending EuroPython and would like to join the summit, check out the agenda and registration details here: https://ep2023.europython.eu/wasm.
We have different ticket types and tiers to choose from. We worked really hard this year to lower the ticket price and make them more affordable. In addition, we are also offering Financial Aid for folks who need extra help to cover tickets, travel and visa costs.
We are again providing free childcare to those who need it! In addition, the sprint weekend will take place in a different venue and is completely open to the public! Stay tuned for more information!

We hope you all are enjoying the longer daylight and the warmer weather that April has brought to us (in the northern hemisphere anyway). April also brings a new newsletter packed with updates! We are just over 70 days until the conference and our volunteers are working hard to put together the best EuroPython ever. Without further ado, here is our update.
📝EuroPython Society Update
✈Visa
If you are planning to attend EuroPython in person, you might need a visa to enter Ireland. As a note, Ireland is part of the EU but it is outside of the Schengen zone. This means if you are from outside of the EU but you have a Schengen visa, you may still need a visa to get in.
Please, double check your case and make sure you have all the documentation in order before travelling to Ireland. If the visa process requires a support letter, we can do that too! Just head to https://ep2022.europython.eu/visa to request the support letter for your visa application!
🚸Childcare service
If you would like to attend EuroPython in person but worry about childcare, fear not, because we have the right solution for you!
We will be providing childcare service at the venue. The best part is that the service is free! Make sure to specify how many children will require childcare and we will take care of them, well, not we, but qualified professionals.
Also keep in mind that we are planning a family friendly mini Makers Fest. Now you have no excuses, you can bring your kids and hack a project together!
🍀EuroPython 2022 Conference Update
📜Programme
The Call for Proposal closed on April 3rd and we are excited to announce that we received a record breaking 429 proposals! Thanks to all the submitters for their time and effort in giving us so much to look forward to.
After closing the CfP we kicked-off 2 parallel reviews of these proposals:
Community voting
Panel review
The community voting closed in the third week of April and we were amazed by the community response: there were a whopping 24000 votes!! This superseded all our expectations and we’d like to thank everyone for putting in the time to cast their votes!
Parallely, 35 experienced reviewers have put in ~700 reviews across all our proposals. The programme team will run another round of reviews once the first round acceptances are sent out.
The programme team is now consolidating communities' preference and panel feedback to curate talks fit for the first round of acceptances.
🔥Panel discussions @ EuroPython
The programme team is working double time to put together collaborations to engage with the broader community. One such collaboration is with the core developers to put together a panel discussion on all things CPython and beyond. They are working hard to iron out the details of the panel. More details soon.
P.S. All of our Early Bird tickets are now sold out. We’re only left with 7 education tickets!

Nature, OSS, and Python friends - this defines what PyCamp is.
After many years of PyCamping events in Argentina, the event had its first edition in Europe this year. The event counted with 25 people spending 4 days together doing what they love the most - collaborating with others through code. The location chosen was the beautiful region of Girona near Barcelona, Spain. Surrounded by nature, our pythonistas could choose any project or workshop to participate in.
From translating Japanese mangas to building bots and making music with Python, the projects were interesting and fun. If no project is of your taste, you can always propose one yourself. Not a Pythonista yourself? No problem at all. In this edition, we had people talking about DevOps tools and JavaScript frameworks, so feel free to bring different topics to the camp. The evenings were fulfilled with games, karaoke, and good chats. Living and collaborating with others makes without saying a true community event. So see you next PyCamp?
