• People new to Python
• People who use Python in their spare time
• People who want to talk about something that isn't specifically Python

• Speaker Invitations Sent: Week of November 20th, 2026

Submission Guidelines:

• As you're writing your proposal, keep in mind:
• There are two options for length: 25 minutes and 40 minutes. Make sure to select the correct option for your talk!
• All presentations are in-person in Seattle, WA.
• We will have a session chair introduce you beforehand.
