PyBay Scholarships

PyBay couldn't happen without the strong support of our Sponsors. However, even with their generosity, many people aren't able to attend PyBay without the backing of our generous Scholarship Partners.

We’re truly grateful that last year’s four Scholarship Partners enabled 11 of the 90+ scholarship applicants to attend PyBay. However, that left many people who needed assistance unable to attend, and we expect even more applicants this year.

Scholarship Partners

In the spirit of increasing the Python community’s inclusivity and diversity, we hope you'll consider joining the ranks of those companies supporting the 2017 PyBay Scholarship Partner program.

Sauce Labs makes automated testing awesome.

Sauce Labs is a growth stage company that provides a cloud-based infrastructure for the automated testing of web and mobile applications. Designed for Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery pipelines, Sauce helps remove the bottleneck associated with functional testing, allowing development teams to ship better software, faster.

One of Sauce Labs' goals is to help front-end developers learn about the benefits of writing code that is optimized for automated testing. Selenium and Appium are the open source testing frameworks that run on their platform, and tests can be written in any development language, including Python.

Sauce is committed to enhancing the Python ecosystem and has partnered with SF Python to sponsor this year's PyBay conference in San Francisco. We are also offering 2 PyBay scholarships to promote diversity in tech and reward those who have made a contribution to the ecosystem but are in need of financial support to attend the conference.
