### The North Bay Python 2017 CFP is open!
 

	
 
North Bay Python is seeking speakers of all experience levels, especially first-timers, to contribute to our first-ever conference program! If you use Python professionally or as a hobbyist, or are even just excited about Python or programming and open source in general, we'd love to hear from you.
 

	
 
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 is *very* much interested in encouraging and supporting new speakers, and we will be able to provide detailed feedback and work with you to develop your proposal and talk content so you can give the best talk possible.
 

	
 
In the interest of transparency, we have documented our [Selection Process](/program/selection-process).

## Speakers
 

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

	
 
**All speakers will be expected to have read and adhere to the conference [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 provide accommodations for speakers and attendees of all abilities — 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. **All speakers will receive complimentary registration to the conference, and requests for further financial compensation to assist with travel will be considered on a case-by-case basis independent of the proposal's merits.**
 

	
 
## Talk formats
 

	
 
**Most of the talk slots will be short** — approximately 25 to 30 minutes, including Q&A. If your ideas would benefit from a longer slot, please explain in your submission how you would use the additional time.

<p>Below is an overview of sponsorship levels. Please see our <a href="/sponsors/prospectus">prospectus</a> or contact <a href="mailto:sponsor@northbaypython.org">sponsor@northbaypython.org</a> for additional details.</p>
 

	
 
<h2>Package Sponsorship</h2>
 

	
 
<p>Package sponsorships are the widest-reaching and best value sponsorships we offer at North Bay Python. When our attendees arrive at the venue, they'll see your signage as they walk through the door. As they're sitting in the theatre, they'll see your logo on the backdrop behind the speakers, and on-screen on between talks. You'll also get the chance to present a short talk about your organization between two of our invited presentations.</p>
 

	
 
<h2>À la Carte Sponsorship</h2>
 

	
 
<p>If you're looking for something a bit more exclusive, North Bay Python's À la Carte sponsorships allow you to promote your organization as part of an important offering during the conference, including lanyards, catering, or video branding. We'll also recognize you as a Silver package sponsor, with the opportunity for discounted upgrades to higher package tiers.</p>
 

	
 
<h2>In-Kind Partnerships</h2>
 

	
 
<p>Sponsorship can also be in the form of in-kind donations of goods and services essential to organizing the conference, or in assisting speakers to attend the conference. If you can make a substantial in-kind donation, we will recognize you as a package-level sponsor of equivalent value.</p>
 

	
 
<h2>Community Partnerships</h2>
 
<h2>Community Partnerships<a name="community-partners"></a></h2>
 

	
 
<p>Community groups, such as Python Meetups and PyLadies groups, are the lifeblood of the Python community, and we need your help to put on the best conference we can. If you can help us with one of the following, we'll recognize you as a community partner, which comes with all of the benefits of a Silver sponsorship.</p>
 

	
 
<ul>
 
  <li>You help us find 10 submissions to our Call for Proposals</li>
 
  <li>Three members of your group attend at a Supporter level or higher</li>
 
  <li>You put us in contact with a sponsor who signs on at Silver level or above</li>
 
  <li>One of your members volunteers with the conference</li>
 
  <li>Anything else that we agree will make our conference even better</li>
 
</ul>
