# Email draft to invited speakers

Dear speakers,

Thank you for agreeing to talk at the Nordic-RSE unconference!
We are super excited to have you.

First I would like to let you know that we had a slight schedule change; due to unforeseen circumstances Athanasia Monika Mowinckels talk will be moved to a later seminar or similar. You can see the new times below, please let me know in case these do not work for you.

Then, I will be 'chairing' the session of your talks and wanted to ask you if the following short introductions are OK with you or how you would like to be introduced?

13.15 CEST: **Shahnawaz Ahmed**, a PhD candidate at the Wallenberg Centre for Quantum Technology in Sweden - talking about QuTiP (Quantum Toolbox in Python) and its journey from student project to community-driven software ("Keep your code alive - lessons from the QuTiP project")
