PyCon JP 2023 will be PyCon APAC 2023

Hello, I’m Selina(Lina Katayose), the chair of PyCon JP 2023. 

As I mentioned in the title, PyCon JP 2023 will be PyCon APAC 2023! This is a conference that rotates among countries in the Asia-Pacific region. It was held online by the Taiwan community last year. I have the privilege to be the chair of this years event and organize it together with the Japanese Python community.

For English speakers

Thank you for your interest in joining the PyCon APAC 2023 team. PyCon APAC 2023 would like to focus on on-site holding as much as possible. We would like more people to enjoy PyCon APAC 2023, and we would like to have diverse views to welcome participants to this event.

Even if you are not good at Japanese, let's talk in English and liven up PyCon APAC 2023 together. As every year, this event will be organized by volunteers. A certain level of Japanese language skills is required, but we will support you. If you are interested in joining, please fill out the application form below.
