Thanks!

[lorenanicole]

Yup thanks!

Haahaha @reshamas I obviously had the wrong link copied and pasted there :D

@lorenanicole That reminds me. JupyterCon is currently being re-organized to a virtual event. We want to give community organizations a chance to highlight them and bring visibility to their orgs. There are a few options. Community organizations can choose from the following in exchange for sharing event with their community and a few free passes:

• 1-2 minute video on your organization or a local chapter
• 1-2 minute video on tips for using Jupyter notebook
• panel discussion

Can we add to the agenda? We have a couple of PyLadies chapters on board. If any others are interested, we can arrange for a few free passes for the chapters who are participating.
https://jupytercon.com/sponsors/#Community%20Sponsors

Note: website still being updated to change from in-person to virtual event. Scheduled for Oct 2020.

Organized by: NumFOCUS and Jupyter

@reshamas sure! Since we only have a hour and we will be spending likely most the time for election work, I imagine if you can condense sponsorship info with quick notes so we can review in a timely fashion that'd be great. Thank you!
