Let’s reflect the Bay in the North Bay Python speaker lineup
Hello again, and welcome new subscribers! My name is Josh and I’m North Bay Python’s communications and outreach coordinator. I’m emailing you with a brief, but important, message.
It’s been just over a week since we began accepting proposals for conference talks and the deadline, September 29, will be here before we know it.
It is very important that the speaker lineup reflect the diversity of the world around us. To make that happen we need to get our call for proposals (CFP) in front of prospective speakers. We’re doing outreach to groups up and down the west coast and we could use your help, too.
Here’s how you can help:

Here’s how you can help:
- Take the stage! You should submit a proposal. Yes, you.
- Amplify someone else's voice. Encourage someone who's never given a conference talk to submit a proposal.
- Share the CFP. Forward this email, retweet this, Facebook that, pass it along however you see fit.
- Help people prepare their proposals and talks: proofread, act as a rehearsal audience, offer slide design tips, etc.
We’ve posted details, including the ways that we can help prospective speakers, on our website.
If you have any questions about the program or submitting a proposal, please email us at program@northbaypython.org. If you run a community or are interested in working with us, please email us at outreach@northbaypython.org.
Thank you for your support as we work to build an excellent program for our inaugural event!
Cheers,
Josh
PS. We're still looking for sponsors -- you can find our prospectus here. Please pass it on :)
