EuroSciPy 2026

The road(map) towards SciPy 2.0
2026-07-21 , Room 1.38 (Ground Floor, Turing)

We first discuss recent developments in SciPy the library, focusing on new features implemented in recent releases and ongoing work. We then survey the road ahead and discuss the roadmap for evolving SciPy forward.


In the first part of the talk, I will briefly discuss new features added to SciPy over the last year of development. Highlights include Array API interoperability, making SciPy use harware accelerators, improvements to large-scale linear algebra and more.

In the second part of the talk, I will discuss technical improvements planned by the SciPy team, and the roadmap for the SciPy evolution, again focusing on technical side of things: enhancements to SciPy's coverage, performance and scalability, porting SciPy provided algorithms to novel hardware and software systems.
