Join the global PyTorch community in Paris, France, on 7–8 April 2026 for two days dedicated to open source machine learning with PyTorch. PyTorch Conference Europe 2026 is the inaugural PyTorch Conference Europe, bringing together researchers, developers, practitioners, and academics to share how PyTorch is being used to build, optimize, and deploy models across the full machine learning lifecycle.
This community-driven event focuses on real-world systems, emerging research, and practical lessons from production environments, creating space for technical exchange, collaboration, and learning across the PyTorch ecosystem.
Call for Proposals Is Now Open
The Call for Proposals for PyTorch Conference Europe 2026 is officially open. If you are working with PyTorch and have insights, experience, or ideas to share, now is the time to submit a proposal.
We are looking for talks that offer technical depth and practical value, including work on framework development, performance optimization, training and inference systems, tooling, research breakthroughs, real-world applications, education, and community contributions.
Proposals are due Sunday, 8 February 2026, at 11:59 pm CEST.
