PyCon SK is organized by the Python community and for the Python community. You're coming to the event, and that makes you part of the community. If you've done something that you think other people might be interested in, or that you think they should know about, please do consider telling us about it. We don't just want to hear from experts or famous names - other perspectives are just as valuable, so don't let the idea that you're not an expert or famous enough stop you. This is your invitation to submit a talk proposal if you haven't spoken at the conference before. First-time speakers' talk proposals will be preferred.
The Call for Proposals is closed!
We are trying to finalize the conference program as soon as possible; the earlier you submit your proposal the higher chance of acceptance it has. The deadline for submissions has been extended to 31 January 2020.
Still not sure about the details your proposal? No worries :-) After submitting your proposal, you will receive a confirmation email with a link with which you can return to your proposal and make changes. You can reach out to us via email and we can discuss the topic you have chosen and also the abstract. If you need mentoring we'd love to help, just ask.
Do you know about a speaker that would be a good fit for our conference? Let us know: info@pycon.sk
There is no official restriction on the topic that you propose a talk session. Talks about Python or the Python community are most likely to line up with the interests of PyCon's audience, and a key consideration that the talk selection committee will be thinking about is your talk's ability to draw an audience. You may propose more than one, but the committee will ask you to choose only one talk if more than one of your proposals is accepted.
If you have any questions, please contact us via email: info@pycon.sk or join our Slack channel
All selected speakers get a complimentary ticket to the conference.
Most talks are 30 minutes long, but we do offer a limited number of 45-minute slots for important topics that promise to benefit from a more extensive treatment.
As with the talks, we are looking for tutorials that can grow this community at any level! We aim for tutorials that will advance Python, advance this community, and shape the future. As tutorials are longer than talks and are in an interactive classroom-like setting, they require much more preparation.
Are you involved in an interesting project, new service or application of technology? We would like to see your talk but if you - for any reason - prefer not to talk in a large auditorium or you think your achievements are of limited interest and therefore not suitable for the general audience, why not present what you are doing in the PyCon SK Poster Session?
Part of the motivation for PyCon SK is to help with Python education and advocacy in Slovakia and around the world. Accordingly, we intend to record all PyCon SK presentations and live stream and release the recordings on the web.
By submitting your talk or workshop proposal, or by signing up to give a lightning talk, you agree to give permission to the SPy o.z. to record, edit, and release audio and/or video of your presentation.
