PyData London 2022

Possible Futures for Jupyter
06-18, 09:15–10:00 (Europe/London), Tower Suite 1

Jupyter has changed the way we think about interactive computing, scientific communication, and science education as it has been adopted globally, both in academia and industry.


In this talk, we present a bold vision for future applications and developments in the Jupyter ecosystem, some of which are just around the corner, while others are still mere possibilities, but have the potential for significant impact, for an even greater number of people.
