I haven't written my own personal PyCon US 2025 recap blog post yet, but most of the time I spent at the conference were related to PyLadiesCon, so I wrote the PyLadiesCon recap blog post instead.
Check it out!
Our PyLadiesCon recap from PyCon US 2025 is live!
We had an unforgettable time in Pittsburgh — connecting with the global Python community, sharing our mission, and celebrating together!
From lightning talks and the PyLadies Lunch to building support for our next edition, it was a weekend full of impact and joy.

We're sad that Denny Perez couldn't be with us at PyCon US, but she's been participating through the photos and videos we sent her, and she's been continuing to post for PyLadiesCon social media accounts.
We left this message for her and if you want to share a message for her too, we're sure she'll appreciate it. Thanks Denny for everything you do!

@mariatta Unveiling our new open-source project
So grateful to share this journey with you all!
We conference organizers who are also software engineers love building tools that help us run events instead of using spreadsheets all the way down.
@mariatta talked at the #PyConUS community organizers summit about the portal software she and the #PyLadies team developed to manage #PyLadiesCon.
Check it out: https://github.com/pyladies/pyladiescon-portal
PyLadiesCon now has our own open source conference management tool at https://portal.pyladies.com
We have code, unit tests, and docs!
I announced it in the Community Organizers Summit at PyCon US. Check my slides to learn more.

Team #PyLadiesCon at #PyConUS 
It's so fun working with this group 
. We're all always looking for ideas on how to further serve our community and to fulfill the #PyLadies mission to bring more women as leaders and contributors of the #Python open source community, making space and opportunities

Today I did some "community organizing" task related to an event, and by "organizing" I really mean copy pasting from pretalx CFP platform to spreadsheet to docs and then to email client, and it makes me mad.
Last week I spoke to @djangonaut space on why spreadsheets is not the way to manage a conference. I know a lot of other conferences are relying on Spreadsheets too.
Watch this talk to hear me rant about it (and how #PyLadiesCon plan to address it)
Living up to my 2025 motto: No more spreadsheets!
I got to speak to @djangonaut yesterday about this very topic. Can't wait to share more publicly about what we're up to with #PyLadiesCon.
Stay tuned for the video recording.
Can we park these banners at your next Python conference?

A Big Thank You to the Python Software Foundation! 
We’re excited to recognize the Python Software Foundation as a Special Sponsor of #PyLadiesCon 2024. Your support has been key in helping us host a global, free event dedicated to empowering women in the Python community.
Thank you for helping us make PyLadiesCon 2024 a success!
We've sent out certificate of participation to all PyLadiesCon attendees, volunteers, and speakers.
The certificate is a small token of appreciation that doesn't take a lot to create, if you know how to code in Python.
If you run an event and also want to send out this kind of certificates to your attendees, check my blog post to learn how.
