EuroPython 2017 will be held in Rimini, Italy

After carefully reviewing all proposals we had received and intense discussions with the teams, the EuroPython Society (EPS) is happy to announce the decision to accept the proposal from the Italian on-site team, backed by the Python Italia APS, to hold EuroPython 2017 in Rimini, Italy.

The EPS would like to thank all teams who have entered bids for our Call for Interest (CFI):

  • Python Italia APS: Milan/Como/Genoa/Rimini, Italy
  • The local Czech Python community: Brno, the Czech Republic
  • Python San Sebastian Society (ACPySS): Bilbao, Basque Country, Spain

The conference will be held at the Rimini PalaCongressi in July 2017. The exact dates are still subject to negotiations with the venue. We’ll announce them as soon as they are finalized.

Until then, here’s the official EuroPython 2017 URL for you to bookmark, where we’ll open up the website in January 2017:

Sponsoring EuroPython

Companies who would like to signup as EuroPython 2017 sponsor are encouraged to contact the sponsor workgroup at sponsoring@europython.eu.

Until we have the 2017 sponsor brochure in place, please have a look at our 2016 brochure. To give you an idea, these sponsors had signed up for 2016 and were more than pleased with the outcome:

We will be preparing the launch of the website in January 2017. If you’d like to sign up early as launch sponsor, please contact us in the next two months.

As with the past conferences, we will try to make EuroPython 2017 as effective as possible for sponsors by offering more booth space and sponsors slots than ever before.

This is your chance to reach out to more than 1.100 enthusiastic and highly motivated EuroPython attendees !

EuroPython Workgroups

Organizing a EuroPython event is a lot of work and with the workgroup concept, we have opened up much of the organization for remote participation.

If you want to help, please apply for one or more workgroups which you feel match your interests and experience. If you’d like to help, but don’t have enough experience, yet are willing to learn, please apply as well. The application process is described on our workgroups page.

Enjoy,

EuroPython Society
