PyConUS 2024

• Ibis tutorial (recorded it will be up on youtube at some point)

Part of the Ibis team (Gil, Phillip, Naty and Jim) gave a successful 3h Tutorial at PyCon US 2024. We received great feedback about the delivery, easy installation process (using codespaces), and the content itself. We also asked for points of improvements to the participants. In this issue you can find the participants "what we can improve feedback" as well as our lessons learned https://github.com/ibis-project/ibis-tutorial/issues/30

• Phillip's Maintainers summit talk.

Phillip gave a short talk on how we test 20 backends on Ibis. This talk was not recorded but it was well received.

• Naty and Phillip gave an Ibis Talk in the Spanish track.

The talk was well received and we had question at the end of, people were interested and in some cases excited about using Ibis at their workplace.

• Openspace hosted together with DuckDB

Most people in the room (50+) where there to ask questions about duckdb but there were some questions about Ibis. It was good for visibility.

General notes:

• A maintainer of airflow connected with the team for further discussion
• Multiple ESRI people had interest in knowing more about Geospatial support.
• The team did a great job making Ibis visible and getting exposure.
