Circuit mix

Where NumFOCUS shows up, by circuit. Each event counts once: 2 if it sponsored, 1 if it only had speakers. Hover a segment for the conference.

Presence by conference and year

Each cell is one conference in one year. Fill shows the company sponsored, shaded by its best tier that year; a dot means it had speakers there. Hover for details; click to open the event.

Activity by year

Three measures on one year axis; each panel has its own scale. 2027, 2028 is still mostly ahead, so its bars are faded and incomplete.

Conferences present at

Distinct conferences each year, split by whether the company sponsored or only had speakers there.

  • Sponsored
  • Speakers only

Distinct speakers

People from this company on a program that year, each counted once.

Sponsorships by tier

Sponsorship rows per year (one per event and listing), stacked by normalized tier.

  • Gold
  • Other / unlabeled

Where they've grown or pulled back

DownSponsored 1 conference in 2026, down from 5 in 2023.

Counted per conference. 2026 is the latest year whose conferences have mostly happened. Tiers use the best tier each year; swatches show the path, oldest first. A conference counts as pulled out only when a later event published a complete sponsor list, since most events don’t say whether their list is complete.

Pulled out 2

Not sponsored since 2024 or earlier, though a later event published a complete sponsor list without them.

  • AI By the Baylast sponsored 2023; the conference ran again in 2025
  • StanConlast sponsored 2024; the conference ran again in 2026

Steady 2

Sponsored in most years of its span at the same tier.

Once or on and off 4

No clear direction, or a gap we can’t confirm because later sponsor lists are incomplete.

Lookalikes

Companies with the most similar conference footprint: they sponsor and speak at the same conferences. Bars are cosine similarity, from 0 (nothing shared) to 1 (identical).
