Scientific Computing with Python: Keynote speaker
(Austin) This year marks the 22nd annual meeting of the Scientific Computing Conference with Python. It brings together over 700 participants from academia, industry, and government to showcase their latest research, demonstrate their software projects, learn from the tutorials, and collaborate on code development. Last year, we were excited to be back in person. We also wanted to enable community members worldwide to continue participating in SciPy, so we held our first hybrid meeting based on the lessons from earlier virtual conferences. We did ok, but we wanted to do better this year. To that end, we established the first-ever Hybrid committee dedicated to figuring out the logistics of building a more welcoming, accessible, and flexible SciPy conference for everyone, regardless of physical location. We aim to ensure that everyone, regardless of physical location, feels connected and genuinely a part of SciPy 2023.
