PyData Seattle 2015

PyData.org is the home for all things related to the use of Python in data management and analysis.

PyData conferences are a gathering of users and developers of data analysis tools in Python. The goals are to provide a place to share ideas and learn from each other about how best to apply the Python language and tools to ever-evolving challenges in the realm of data management, processing, analytics, and visualization.

We aim to be an accessible, community-driven conference, with tutorials for novices, advanced topical workshops for practitioners, and opportunities for package developers and users to meet in person.
