EuroPython 2014 Conference in Berlin at the bcc Berlin Congress Center

Organizers expect up to 1,200 attendees

(PresseBox) (Neuenhagen bei Berlin, )
The next EuroPython conference will be held from July 21 - 27, 2014 at the bcc Berlin Congress Center in the heart of Berlin. The EuroPython conference is the second largest global conference for the popular programming language Python, after the PyCon US conference in North America. The bcc is located at the central Alexander Square. It offers ideal facilities for a developer conference on 3,000 m2. The organizers are expecting up to 1,200 participants, continuing the growth of the EuroPython conference series. The very successful EuroPython this year attracted almost 900 Python enthusiasts. It was hosted in Florence, Italy for the third time running.

Berlin offers ideal conditions for a large international developer conference. The city with its about 2,500 young businesses has a large and fast-growing start-up scene. 300 universities, polytechnics, research institutes and technology parks underline Berlin's importance as one of Europe's leading science and research locations. Thanks to its rich cultural landscape with around 180 museums, renowned international art collections and precious works of art as well as a lively art and music scene, Berlin is one of the most vibrant and vividly creative metropolitan centers in Europe. Its attractions and excellent national and international transport links have already put Berlin among the top three in the international conference and congress region rankings.

The conference will be organized locally by the Python Software Verband e.V., the Python Users Berlin, the Django User Group Berlin and the PyLadies Berlin, in cooperation with the EuroPython Society for the Python community. With five lecture tracks and two tutorial tracks running in parallel, the EuroPython conference offers an attractive schedule for all attendees.

The EuroPython 2014 logo expresses what is on the organizer's minds, which is getting people from very different areas of expertise together to communicate. Python is used as a programming language in industrial and service enterprises as well as in research and education. The EuroPython brings together developers who work together on fascinating tasks and as a result have found unique solutions to their problems.
