The gears behind one of the most active tech communities in Barcelona

After 10 years of experience organizing python-related events and more than 3000 people in its Meetup group, Python Barcelona (PyBCN) was officially registered as a non-profit association in 2018. PyBCN is a meeting point for all the Barcelona Python community, and we organize different monthly activities like PyBCN and PyLadiesBCN meetups and practice sessions, along with some annual events like PyDay BCN or PyDataBCN.

Would you like to be a part of PyBCN? We are looking forward to hearing from you!

How does PyBCN operate?

We have a Board and a Permanent Committee to make decisions, and work groups to drive all the association activity.
