Cristián Maureira-Fredes
Hello! My name is Cristián and I currently work as Sr. R&D Manager at The Qt Company. One of my main responsibilities is the Qt for Python project (PySide/Shiboken), which is the set of official bindings of the Qt Framework to Python. In my day to day, I work with C++, Python and CPython, which are usually the topics of my talks. In my spare time, I like to collaborate with Open Source communities, mainly Python such as Python en Español https://hablemospython.dev, Python Chile https://pythonchile.cl, Python España https://es.python.org, and conferences like PyConUS and Europython, and much more!

Session
Python's ecosystem is one of the best out there, and this is mainly due to its community and what lies inside its core, a C API.
Being partially in C enables Python to interact with many languages out there which might be known by you like C++, Rust or Zig. But how does it work?
On this talk, you will be able to understand how Python can embrace the power and performance of other languages, in order to expose modules that improve the whole ecosystem.
