Speaker Guide

Since we're running a new online format, we have prepared a comprehensive speaker guide for the EuroPython 2020 conference to provide help with setting everything up and making the online conference an enjoyable experience for our speakers and attendees.

The guide has all the details on rehearsal sessions, Zoom and Discord setup as well as many suggestions for avoiding common problems when running online conferences.

If you have questions, please ask on the speakers mailing list you have been signed up to or write to program@europython.eu.
