PyData Cardiff is the Cardiff chapter of the International PyData Community sponsored by AMPLYFI (https://amplyfigroup.com/). You can follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/PyDataCardiff and join our Meetup group here: https://www.meetup.com/PyData-Cardiff-Meetup PyData is an educational program of NumFOCUS, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization in the United States. PyData provides a forum for the international community of users and developers of data analysis tools to share ideas and learn from each other. The global PyData network promotes discussion of best practices, new approaches, and emerging technologies for data management, processing, analytics, and visualization. PyData communities approach data science using many languages, including (but not limited to) Python, Julia, and R. Since 2014, the first PyData meetup group in the United Kingdom was set up in London. This has become a great success, with now over 6800 members at the start of 2018. This new group has been set up to extend the PyData community into Wales. There is a fast developing tech scene in our city, and we welcome all to join us. We will be working very closely with PyData Bristol, who have also set up a PyData meetup at the start of 2018. The PyData Code of Conduct ( http://pydata.org/code-of-conduct.html)governs this meetup.
