ABOUT EUROPYTHON

The EuroPython conference is organised by volunteers from the Python community across Europe and beyond.

Behind the scenes, it is run by the EuroPython Society (EPS), a Swedish non-profit organisation responsible for the legal and financial aspects of the conference, as well as overall coordination.

The society is governed by a board consisting of a chairperson, a vice chairperson, and between two and seven additional board members, all elected annually by its members.

Where the surplus goes

If the conference generates a surplus, all proceeds go back to the community:

  • Grants — We support Python community events across Europe through our grants programme.
  • Financial Aid — We provide assistance to help individuals attend EuroPython who might not otherwise be able to.
THE TEAM

We're organised into teams, each focused on a different area of the conference. Every team is made up of volunteers donating their time and skills.
