Early-bird ticket sales close soon!

Johannesburg is hosting Africa's largest gathering of Pythonistas in October. Starting on the 10th with tutorials and running to the 14th with sprints, PyConZA has something for everyone, including:

Specialized tutorials
  • Main conference (Including a new PyData conference track)
  • Women in Tech beginner's tutorial
  • Sprints
Talk submissions are open

Talk submissions are already coming in for PyConZA this year. If you would like to share some of your Python related work with us, sign up for a talk via the PyConZA website where you can find more detailed information about what kinds of talks we are looking for. We have had a wide selection of topics already submitted, including:
  • developing RESTful APIs with Django
  • implementing blockchains
  • developing your own ORM
  • machine learning
We also have a mentorship programme for new speakers, so if you are considering speaking for the first time, and would like some guidance, let us know!

Submit your talk here: https://za.pycon.org/talks/submit-talk/
