We are thrilled to announce Python Data Science Day will be taking place March 14th, 2024; a “PyDay” on Pi Day: 3.14 
. If you’re a Python developer, entrepreneur, data scientist, student, or researcher working on projects from hobbyist and start up to enterprise level, you’ll find solutions to modernize your data pipelines and answer complex queries with data.
During the event, you will hear directly from the experts, community members and Python and Data Science Microsoft MVPs, about the latest in Python Data Science. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced Python Data Scientist, this event is for you.
We’ll cover three main areas:
- The latest in Data Science with Python
- New packages and research
- Teaching Data Science with Python
- Interesting new Data Sets and sources for data
- Tools for Data Science
- Code editors and developer tools
- Tool chains/platforms for analysis
- AI tools for Data Science
- Microsoft tools (Fabric, Synapse, Azure AI/ML, VS Code)
- Scaling Data Science to the Cloud
- Databases + Data ingestion
- Cloud-based computation and collaboration
- Cloud resource management + DevOps
