Our PyDataLondon annual conference is in its 5th year. We're entirely
volunteer run, backed by NumFOCUS in the US, with all raised funds
going to NumFOCUS to support scientific open source packages like
Pandas, Numpy and Jupyter via sprints, diversity outreach and events.
PyData is a global meetup
In addition to various open source activities (e.g. co-founding the
PyDataLondon meetup and conference series) I also run a data science
and data engineering jobs list focused on roles in the UK. The initial
aim was to help bind the nascent Pythonic data science that was
growing out of London.
