### Proposal submissions for North Bay Python 2019 are open!

There's information and resources below that you should read, but in case you've already read it and want to dive in now:

<div class="btn-group">

  <a class="btn btn-lg btn-primary" href="/dashboard">Submit a Proposal</a>

</div>

If you've never presented at a conference before and think you might like to try it, *we want to hear from you!* The program committee encourages and supports new speakers. We can provide detailed feedback and work with you to develop your proposal and talk content so you can give the best talk possible.

Curious about how we choose talks? You can read about our [selection process](/program/selection-process).

Portions of this page were drawn from ideas seen on [DjangoCon EU](https://djangocon.eu), [SeaGL](https://seagl.org), [Fog City Ruby](http://www.fogcityruby.com/speak/), and others. Thanks to all for their inspiration and permission to borrow!

## Dates<a name="dates"></a>

+ **July 1**: Proposal submissions open

+ **Week of August 23**: Acceptance notifications sent

+ **Week of September 9**: Speaker confirmations due; program finalized and announced

+ **November 2–3**: Conference happens!

## Speaker Benefits

**All accepted speakers receive complimentary tickets to the conference. Financial assistance for travel and lodging is considered on a case-by-case basis independent of each proposal's merits.**

## Speakers<a name="speakers"></a>

North Bay Python is dedicated to featuring a diverse and inclusive speaker lineup.

**All speakers are expected to read and adhere to the [Code of Conduct](/code-of-conduct). In particular for speakers: slide contents and spoken material should be appropriate for a professional audience including people of many different backgrounds. Sexual language and imagery is not appropriate, and neither are language or imagery that denigrate or demean people based on race, gender, religion, sexual orientation, physical appearance, disability, or body size.**

We will make every effort to accommodate speakers and attendees with disabilities—all we ask is that you let us know so we can prepare accordingly.

North Bay Python is a conference in support of the local programmer community outside of the core San Francisco Bay Area tech scene. We aim to feature a mix of local and non-local speakers to offer a program with broad appeal.

## Audience

We anticipate 200-300 attendees at our 2019 conference. In 2017, we had 230 attendees from California and beyond, including:

+ 78% from the San Francisco Bay Area, including 25% from Sonoma County

+ 5% from elsewhere in California

+ 17% from other US states, and internationally

30% of attendees were women or non-binary.

Our attendees range in experience from students and new graduates, through to career professionals with more than 30 years in the industry. Our professional attendees work in many roles, including software engineers, CTO-level executives, DevOps engineers, data scientists, front-end engineers, and mobile developers.

48% of our attendees had never attended a Python-focused conference before North Bay Python. 15% of our attendees made North Bay Python their first tech conference.

## Talk Formats<a name="talk-formats"></a>

**Most of the talk slots will be short**—approximately 30 minutes. If your ideas would benefit from a longer slot, please explain in your submission how you would use the additional time.

**North Bay Python will not be facilitating audience Q&A during scheduled talk slots, in favor of attendees asking questions during breaks.** If you're used to ending a 30-minute talk at 25 minutes and using 5 for Q&A, please plan instead on speaking all the way to 30 minutes, and think of it as an opportunity to toss in a few bonus details for the audience!

## Topics<a name="topics"></a>

**This is a single track conference, so your talk needs to hold the attention of both beginners and experienced developers. That *doesn't* mean every talk needs to be a beginner-level talk.**

If you're talking about advanced concepts, people who are new to Python or your library should come away excited about the possibilities, and be aware of the concepts they need to learn to get there.

Here are just a few topics we think might go well in the North Bay Python program. If you have a talk idea on a subject not listed here and you think it fits well with our community and mission, we would love to [hear about it](mailto:program@northbaypython.org)!

+ The Python community

+ Python fundamentals

+ Useful libraries and tools

+ Testing in Python

+ Deploying, operating, or scaling Python

+ Organization and communication skills for software development

+ What Python can learn from other communities

+ Accessibility in Python (and other) software

+ Unexpected places Python gets used (Embedded systems! Health science!)

+ ... and anything else we might not have thought of!

## Resources<a name="resources"></a>

This [public speaking](https://github.com/vmbrasseur/Public_Speaking) repository, maintained by [VM Brasseur](https://twitter.com/vmbrasseur), has many useful resources to help you prepare a proposal and polish your talk.
