🔗 https://ep2026.europython.eu/session/update-on-the-cpython-jit-what-to-expect-in-3-15
📝 Abstract:
This talk is a follow-up to my EuroPython 2025 session on the foundations of the CPython JIT compiler. It looks at how the JIT has evolved since Python 3.14 and where it stands as Python 3.15 approaches release. We cover the transition of the JIT from an experimental feature towards a supported part of CPython, how it fits into the runtime today, and what that means in practice for users and distributors. The talk also explores how the JIT interacts with free-threaded builds, the current status of integration with external debuggers, and how these constraints shape real-world usage. Finally, we examine how the JIT performs today, where it already delivers substantial speedups, where it does not, and what realistic performance expectations look like for Python 3.15.

🎤 *Deploying Python Web Apps in 2026 by Will Vincent*
🔗 https://ep2026.europython.eu/session/deploying-python-web-apps-in-2026
📝 Abstract:
Deploying a Python web app is deeply confusing for newcomers, but it doesnt have to be! In this talk, Ill provide an overview of the entire process, with visuals and code, to demystify it and share hard-won lessons along the way.
We will start with a high-level overview of the architecture underpinning deployment: web servers vs. app servers, queues, security considerations, databases, caching, environment variables, and more. Then we will discuss Python-specific aspects, such as how WSGI (PEP 333) standardized the process across all frameworks. Finally, we will review a deployment checklist for Django, Flask, and FastAPI, highlighting where they overlap and where they differ.
The goal of this talk is to explain how web deployments work under the hood, highlighting the Python-specific technical underpinnings that enable a knowledgeable developer to quickly deploy any Python web app, whether using FastAPI, Django, or Flask.

🎤 *How to Talk With Your Legal Department About Open Source by Vladimir Slavov*
🔗 https://ep2026.europython.eu/session/how-to-talk-with-your-legal-department-about-open-source
📝 Abstract:
Open source software (OSS) is today an integral part of software solutions and the software industry as a whole. However, it is often the case that not all parts of an organization are equally familiar with the OSS ecosystem and the specific licenses upon which it relies. Since this ecosystem is built on intellectual property, discussions about using OSS, patching existing OSS projects, or publishing ones own software as an OSS project inevitably involve conversations with the legal department at some point. In this talk, we will discuss some of the fundamentals of intellectual property, OSS licenses, how lawyers tend to think about software in general, and how to convince them that OSS is a good idea.

![Keynote: How to Run 160 KM: Building Resilience When Things Feel Hard - Leah Wasser
[EuroPython 2026 - Keynote - S1 on 2026-07-16]
🎤 *How to Run 160 KM: Building Resilience When Things Feel Hard by Leah Wasser*
🔗 https://ep2026.europython.eu/session/how-to-run-160-km-building-resilience-when-things-feel-hard
📝 Abstract:
What does running 160km (100 miles) have to do with open source? Everything. Both demand that you show up consistently, put in the work, and keep moving forward—even when the path feels uncertain and even when people tell you it cant be done. This talk draws on my journey as an ultrarunner, a data-driven ecologist in a field dominated by traditional fieldwork, and a founder of a nonprofit effort that leverages community as both a support system and a powerful force to tackle hard technical problems. I’ll share my journey and what it really takes to build resilience in the face of uncertainty. Youll leave with a simple framework for moving forward when the path is unclear and the world is rapidly changing. You’ll leave with a better understanding of how to find the signal through the noise and how to build toward something bigger than yourself, one step at a time, and why the people around you are your most powerful resource.

![The Self-Healing Web: Designing Resilient, Typo-Proof URLs - Dominic Hollis
[EuroPython 2026 - S3A on 2026-07-16]
🎤 *The Self-Healing Web: Designing Resilient, Typo-Proof URLs by Dominic Hollis*
🔗 https://ep2026.europython.eu/session/the-self-healing-web-designing-resilient-typo-proof-urls
📝 Abstract:
Are you a user of a popular web application who gets frustrated when you encounter a poorly formatted URL resulting in a 404 error? Or are you a developer who just wants a nice way to make your app more user-friendly? Look no further, a self-healing URL _may_ be the solution to your problems.
This talk explores the core principles of self-healing URLs - a URL routing strategy that treat unique identifiers in the URL as the source of truth, while allowing human-readable portions to be flexible or even missing. We will also examine the architectural patterns and logic required to resolve these broken paths, such as partial string (fuzzy) matching.
Using the flask-selfheal package as a practical showcase, Ill show you how these concepts can be implemented in a real-world web application. We’ll also look under the hood at how to teach a routing engine to recognise a users intent and automatically redirect them to the correct URL.
By the end of the talk, you will understand what a self-healing URL is and how it can be implemented in your own web applications, regardless of the language or framework you are using.

![Rust for High Performance Computing (HPC) in Python - Cheuk Ting Ho
[EuroPython 2026 - S1 on 2026-07-15]
🎤 *Rust for High Performance Computing (HPC) in Python by Cheuk Ting Ho*
🔗 https://ep2026.europython.eu/session/rust-for-high-performance-computing-hpc-in-python
📝 Abstract:
Python has become the most widely used language in scientific computing and data science due to its approachable syntax, vast ecosystem of libraries, and rapid prototyping capabilities. However, its interpreted nature often poses a performance bottleneck for computationally intensive tasks common in High Performance Computing (HPC) used in scientific and data work, such as large-scale simulations, complex data analysis, and machine learning model training.
Enhancing Pythons performance, therefore, is critical for scientific computing: it allows researchers and engineers to maintain the productivity and flexibility of the Python environment while achieving the necessary speed and scalability to tackle demanding, real-world HPC problems without needing to switch to lower-level languages entirely.
In this talk, we will review the current state of Python in HPC, examine the role of key libraries like NumPy and Dask, and see how to use PyO3 to create robust Rust bindings for Python in a way that simplifies the process of building and distributing packages. We’ll explore how Rust brings specific advantages to HPC, including guaranteed memory safety without garbage collection, zero-cost abstractions, and true parallelism.
Attendees will leave with a clear understanding of the why and how of leveraging Rust in their Python-based HPC workflows, positioning them to develop faster, safer, and more scalable computational code.
