Hi all, as you may have guessed, we've had to delay a @PyDataChi conference until at least 2021. We encourage you all to submit a talk to or attend @PyData Global (global.pydata.org). CFP deadline is Aug. 2. Hope to (virtually) see some of you there!

Hey all, as you may have heard, we're trying to make a @PyDataChi Chicago conference in 2020, but we're still looking for a venue! Please DM us if you have any leads. Details to follow in thread.

Space: We're ideally looking for a venue that will allow us to have three tracks so we need one main room that can hold 300-400, and two smaller rooms that can hold 80-100.

Dates: A three day conference would be our preference (including weekends). Right now, September is looking like the best month, but we could probably also make June or July work.
