We've looked a lot of conference tools, ideas, and way to make the event an amazing one. The main goal in front of us to make the event as interactive as possible and as close to the offline version as possible The team after much review and thought has decided to go with the platform, Hopin[1]. Hopin ----- Hopin is an all-in-one virtual platform, where the primary mode of interaction is audio-video or chat. Over the last few months, a lot of conferences has been organized on the platform and scale at which they are operating is amazing. The platform provides with Stages[2], to present keynotes and talks. Session area for our open spaces, hallways, and any other impromptu sessions that need to be created. It also has an Expo area for the sponsors to interact with the participants, where they can accommodate their mini session. The booths in the Expo are very much like the one in the offline setting. Networking is a good part of Hopin, where you can either do a 1x1 random matching session with folks, or folks can create their private session to replicate the group discussion. Last two things to point is, documentation and support. Documentation of the platform is quite in-depth. BangPypers Talks - Road to PyCon India 2020 -------------------------------------------- The Hopin Platform was finalized a couple of days back, but today the BangPypers team hosted the meetup on the platform. The event was a smooth sailing other a couple of initial hiccups. The event had 4 talks, which went smoothly. A big thanks to the BangPypers team. --- Tickets ------- The PyCon India 2020 tickets are open but we are selling out fast. So, if you haven't booked the tickets, please head over to the website and get your tickets. We need your help -------------------- This year, we've been very highly active on Zulip[2]. As we move closer to the event, we would like your support and help to make this happen successfully.

The Review Panel WG volunteers worked parallelly to get the proposals as complete as possible as per the guidelines we built before the Subject Matter Expert (SME) aka Talk Reviewers started the process. Thanks to the whole Reviewers team for putting their thought and effort into each talk. As of today, based on the reviews of the proposals, the first set of selected speakers has been created. The team will start reaching out to all these speakers, to prepare the final list. The date for the final schedule to be published still stands at 15th September 2020. Schedule Outline of PyCon India 2020 ------------------------------------ This year, since we have gone online, the number of talks and registration outside India is substantially high. So, the team has decided to start the event at noon and end at 8:00 PM IST. This will help us to accommodate other timezones as well and not moving much from our core time. The schedule outline (all times are in IST): 12:00 - 12:10 - Opening Session of the day 12:15 - 13:15 - Keynote 13:20 - 13:50 - Talk Slot 13:55 - 14:25 - Talk Slot 14:30 - 15:20 - Break / Networking 15:20 - 15:50 - Talk Slot 15:55 - 16:25 - Talk Slot 16:30 - 17:30 - Keynote 17:30 - 17:50 - Break / Networking 17:50 - 18:20 - Talk Slot 18:25 - 18:55 - Talk Slot 19:00 - 20:00 - Keynote 20:00 - 20:05 - Closing session for the day 20:05 - 20:30 - Networking The `Talk Slot`s are 30 min slot which would have talks, lightning talks, and sponsored talks. This will be replicated for all the stages, except for the Keynote slots. This year the team also plans to have 4 parallel tracks, and one track dedicated for just *Advanced* talks. Once the schedule is prepared, an update will be shared detail about how the talks will be placed across the stages/ or sessions. Though this schedule is tentative and what the whole team is following, minor updates might be done to accommodate speakers or sponsors. --- Miscellaneous info ------------------ Tickets ------- The PyCon India 2020 tickets are open but we are selling out fast.
