Separately, Diamond and Keystone sponsors get to write one extra technical case study blog post to be published on our regular EuroPython Blog, which also goes to our Twitter account and mailing lists. You may also opt to cross post the same blog across dev.to and the EuropPython blog.
For each blog post, we will require at least 3 paragraphs of text and ideally a picture we can use (if you don't have a picture, we can use your logo as well).
The text should be written to highlight technical case study related to Python, e.g. how you solved a problem or improved performance with Python. It should address a technically oriented audience.
You can check out the 2020 Keystone Sponsor blog post to get an idea.
