Keynote Speaker Suggestions
by Vijay Kumar April 11, 2019

April 11, 2019

Hi Everyone, While we wait for the confirmation of the dates, we can start the keynote speaker selection process. For people new to the conference, the keynotes at PyCon India, are inspiring talks from speakers, that leave a lasting impact on the conference attendees. The keynote speakers also help to tip the scales, for people having second thoughts about attending the conference. This increases participation in the conference and enriches the overall experience of the conference. As indicated in the proposal we will be having 4 keynote speakers. Please send in your keynote speaker suggestion, to the mailing list. Please send in one keynote speaker suggestion per mail, containing a brief description about the speaker. If you like a suggestion, use +1 style voting to indicate preference for a particular keynote speaker. Once the dates are confirmed, we will ping the keynote speakers in the order of preference. Regards, Vijay

Regarding call for Participation to Promote Pycon India 2019
by Rengaraj D Feb. 28, 2019

Feb. 28, 2019

Hi Everyone, Being a national conference, the message of PyCon India 2019 should ideally reach every Python developer in this country. That sure is a hard goal to reach. But if we can put in the best of our efforts we can definitely reach a large section of the Python developers in this country. As part of this promotion effort, we are forming a work group to promote PyCon India 2019 in local usergroups, meetup groups, companies, colleges and institutions across India. We are looking for region-wise owners to help in promoting the event. The role of each region-wise owner, will be to promote PyCon India 2019 in a particular geographical region or community. This will involve sending notification and announcements to local mailing lists, making announcements during meetups, putting up posters on notice boards, etc. For more details and for participating in this effort, please visit https://github.com/pythonindia/inpycon2019-tasks/wiki/Promotion Regards Rengaraj
