Our team consisted both of people based in the Czech Republic and abroad so most of our communication was online and asynchronous. Just like each PyCon CZ since 2015, we are all volunteers who have dedicated several months of spare time to prepare the event.

This edition was also special thanks to an extended provision of childcare. For parents who could register their children while purchasing the tickets, we provided professional childcare services during the whole event, including Sunday's workshops. We contracted the same company that EuroPython used in July 2023 because they were happy with the quality. Just as well, we received great feedback and consider the cost to be well-spent money. Along with the retro games lounge, this was a great way to allow parents to take part in the conference and not worry about babysitting.
