We are pleased to announce the **Swiss PGDay 2024**, which will take place on **Thursday, 27 June and Friday, 28 June 2024** at the University of Applied Sciences of Eastern Switzerland, Campus **Rapperswil (near Zurich)**.

The conference will last two days with two parallel tracks. Presentations will be mainly in English, but also in German (and there will be at least one presentation in English in each time slot).

A social event will be organized at the end of the first day of the conference to encourage networking in the community.

There will be a lightning talk session. Lightning talks will be registered during the conference.

You can also submit a poster description until 15 May 2024. The posters will be shown in the exhibition area. Poster submitters are encouraged to present in a lightning talk session as well.

Attendee registration will open in early February 2024 and the call for sponsors will be announced at around the same time.
