We're sorry!
We made a mistake in processing the videos from DjangoCon US 2024. The sponsor acknowledgements are missing our wonderful sponsor, the Wharton School. We deeply regret this and are working to re-upload videos with our correct sponsor acknowledgements.
All videos have been marked as unlisted and will be removed in the future. We expect the new, permanent videos to be uploaded in two weeks.
