Hi On November 1. 2019 we will be hosting "Driving IT 2019" at the Danish Engineering Society. This is a major event with four tracks, 40 speakers and 400+ participants - probably THE event in Denmark. The event is very open source in style and feel. The tracks are * Privacy/security * Tools * Cool * Startups The audience is super nerdy and mostly software developers, a nice and friendly crowd that will ask good questions. I am searching for speakers on the future of Python - where are we headed, interesting and useful info and thoughts, to go in Tools or the Cool track. We will cover travel and stay and perhaps a limited fee, Be in touch asap. We would be delighted to host 1-2 important talks on Python. Cheers Rolf -- Rolf Ask Clausen Senior Consultant The Danish Engineering Society, IDA (Ingeniørforeningen, IDA) rac(a)ida.dk<mailto:rac@ida.dk> / +45 28109517
