The first PyOhio was a one-day event, held in July, 2008
at the main branch of the Columbus Public Library. We drew over 90 people
from Ohio, Michigan, Kentucky, Indiana, and beyond - as far as New Hampshire.

This year, PyOhio is expanding to a two-day event, July 25-26, 2009. It will
be held at Ohio State University's Knowlton Hall, with a variety of lecture
halls, breakout rooms, and other spaces to accomodate more attendees and activities.
From 2008 to 2009, PyOhio grew from a one-day event with over 90 attendees

PyOhio is a regional conference for people interested in the programming language with the biggest bite: Python! If you are considering sponsoring any technology events in Ohio or the Midwest, please consider PyOhio!

From 2008 to 2009, PyOhio grew from a one-day event with over 90 attendees to an all-weekend conference with over 130. The variety of talks and cooperative coding opportunities drew passionate programmers from the Ohio region and far beyond. For 2010, we expect the biggest turnout ever!

What is PyOhio?

PyOhio is a two-day conference focusing on the Python programming language. The conference will include seminars, workshops, tutorials, panel discussions, open spaces, code sprints, and lightning talks on all aspects of Python, with components covering introductory to advanced skill levels.

PyOhio 2010 will take place Saturday, July 31 and Sunday, August 1 at Ohio State University in Columbus.

What is Python?

Python is a general-purpose programming language usable on every common operating system, alone or under .NET or J2EE. Python is applicable to all types of programming problems, including web programming, system administration, desktop applications, and others; it has become a key element in IT infrastructures worldwide. Many programmers who are proficient in several languages strongly prefer Python for its clarity, ease of use, and maintanability.

Why sponsor PyOhio?

PyOhio attendees are a variety of working professionals, students, academics, and others who are passionate about technology and passionate about keeping themselves up-to-date - so much so that they'll take a weekend of their own to immerse themselves in their favorite (but not their only) language. This makes them the acknowledged leaders in their fields, the ones their peers look to. Sponsoring PyOhio lets the attendees know that, like them, you stand out - that your organization shares their love of excellence in technology. This is your chance to influence an exceptionally influential group of professionals with your sponsorship message!

PyOhio is run entirely by a group of regional volunteers, but is held in cooperation with the Python Software Foundation. Your PyOhio sponsorship should qualify as a pre-tax business expense; however, if you require a an official 501(c) organization, please write to our Sponsorship Coordinator about sponsoring PyOhio via the PSF.
