Visiting Group in PyCon JP 2019

PyCon is a platform for Python users to get together for Python. This year, people affiliated with PyCon TW formed a visiting group to attend PyCon JP. It’s the first international outreach from PyCon TW, and a great opportunity for us to experience different culture.

Overview

The theme of PyCon JP 2019 is "Python New Era", an idea of the new era in Japan and the new era of Python3.

PyCon JP 2019 is held September 14 to 17 at Tokyo. September 14th and 15th are Development Sprints and Tutorial Day, respectively. The conference is on September 16th and 17th at Ota Cty Industrial Plaza (PiO).

The conference includes keynotes, invited talks, technical talks, poster sessions, jobs fair, lightning talks, and many other activities. The topics of them involve project case studies, machine learning, data science, web programming, etc. This year PyCon JP has 951 participants in the conference alone, and 1160 participants including sprints and tutorials. It is the largest body of total participants ever. (See also https://www.pycon.jp/organizer/ .) And here is the schedule of the conference (youtube videos are attached): https://pycon.jp/2019/schedule/ .

Also, our visiting group took notes for the sprint, the welcome party, and the conference on HackMD:

FAQ

企業票和個人票有什麼不同?

企業票種的註冊問卷可填寫統編資訊, 因此適於報帳場合; 個人票的註冊問卷無法填寫統編資訊.

註冊後會獲得怎樣的購票證明?

PyCon Taiwan 是和財團法人開放文化基金會合作舉辦, 預設會寄送電子發票, 賣方統一編號 38552170

售票平台與 KKTIX 合作, 完成註冊後會收到 KKTIX 系統寄送的訂票證明, 樣式像下例所示:

我發現企業票每次只能買一張, 是指只能一人進場嗎? 公司其他員工也能進場嗎?

一張企業票, 只能一人入場.

如果公司內有多位 (例如5位以上) 同仁想參加, 可考慮企業票團購.

不過, 即使是團購票, 每一位都要獨立填寫註冊問卷, 因為需要個別會眾的紀念衫尺寸或飲食習慣等調查資訊.

企業團購優惠是怎麼回事?

如果公司內有多位 (預設是 5 位) 夥伴想要一起報名, 可以考慮洽詢團購優惠價.

團購的優惠金額是多少呢?

企業票團購範例, 可先參考下列試算:
申請 5 張的優惠金額是 1000元, 付款總金額是 5500x5-1000=26500元
申請 8 張的優惠金額是 1800元, 付款總金額是 5500x8-1800=42200元
申請 10張的優惠金額是 2500元, 付款總金額是 5500x10-2500=52500元

數量越多, 優惠自然越多; 如果您過往對 PyCon 或 Python 社群有所貢獻, 也歡迎讓我們知道, 會列為考量.

我想參加 PyCon Taiwan 但有財務壓力怎樣辦?

請善用 Financial Aid 財務補助方案, 或是考慮擔任志工.

PyCon Taiwan 2019 Financial Aid

PyCon Taiwan 2019 財務補助開跑！

Financial Aid program in PyCon Taiwan 2019 is opening application!

本著 Everyone Contributes / Everyone Pays policy 的同時，今年的 PyCon Taiwan 也和往年一樣，也懷著取之於社群也用之於社群的初衷，提供有需要的人財務補助。

Whilst following the Everyone Contributes / Everyone Pays policy, we also provide a financial aid program to help friends in the community, financially or otherwise.

如果您真的對 PyCon Taiwan 很有興趣，但礙於某些經濟考量的話，別忘了您可考慮申請財務補助。

Don't forget applying financial aid, if you are really interested in participating in PyCon Taiwan but in some economic considerations.

Dear proposal submitters, 
有投稿的朋友們，大家好，

We are sorry to delay the announcement of accepted proposals.

Due to the increasement in the number of proposals and the data corruption, there was a delay in the operation.
由於今年投稿量比往年增加，且系統資料集不幸地發生一些問題，導致作業上有所延遲。

We expect to deliver the announcement by the end of this month.
我們預估將於月底前公告名單。

If you have not received any notification, please wait for good news.
如果您有投稿，但是還沒有收到任何通知，請靜候佳音。
