> Because we never get to planning stage of physical Newton Conference, an idea arose in my restless head. Worldwide Online Newton Conference 2020. Online video-conference. With international schedule, presenters, presentations, demos, and - of course - networking sessions. The time is bad (coronavirus), but I think because of this some of us have to stay at home. I thought it was a good time to organize such an event.

For the first time we could organise something like 5-6 hours event, with 4-5 speakers (or longer if the presentations will be linger). We could use Zoom app or something like that to connect everybody.
