We are submitting this poster to raise awareness of the newly established Python Asia Organization (PAO), which is working to build stronger regional collaboration among Python communities across Asia. As PyCon JP is a major event in the region, it is an ideal opportunity to introduce PAO's mission, invite participation from local communities, and share a vision for inclusive, sustainable event development such as PyCon APAC.
Attendees will gain a clear understanding of how PAO supports community development in Asia, discover ways to get involved or collaborate, and see examples of regional diversity in Python activities. They will also learn how local communities can benefit from being part of a broader regional initiative and how to connect through PAO’s resources and programs.
Basic understanding of Python and the global Python community.
