# PETSc Annual User Meetings

The PETSc community hosts annual user meetings in order to foster continuous dialogue with our community. These yearly meetings allow us to (among other things):

- Provide in-depth tutorials on how you can leverage the functionality in PETSc for your research.

- Highlight new functionality and progress made on long-term goals.

- Celebrate science achievements made possible by advances to PETSc’s features and functionality.

- Describe advancements made not only by the PETSc team but also by applications developers and designers of simulation packages that use PETSc.

- Receive valuable feedback on current or requested features.

PETSc annual user meetings rely on two-way communication: PETSc developers provide insights into the latest developments, whereas PETSc users provide input on both technical and non-technical matters, hence aligning development with user needs. In particular, we encourage you to present work illustrating your own use of PETSc. We also invite you to contribute to the future of PETSc, helping identify strategies to encapsulate algorithmic advances in state-of-the-art software, making possible more accurate, predictive simulations by scientists and engineers.

## Upcoming Meetings
