As the name suggests the Community Summit only works because of the participation of our amazing community members. But not everyone in our community has the financial support of their employer or the money to pay their own way. Without them we’d be losing out on input from people who are necessary to the conversations we will have at our upcoming event.
With that in mind we are opening a call for 2017 Community Summit sponsors to ensure that we meet our goal of Community inclusion. Most event costs for the 2017 WordPress Community Summit (venue and catering) are being paid by WordCampWordCamp WordCamps are casual, locally-organized conferences covering everything related to WordPress. They're one of the places where the WordPress community comes together to teach one another what they’ve learned throughout the year and share the joy. Learn more. Europe 2017 (Thank you WordCamp Europe!!). This allows us to focus our fundraising goals on supporting the Summit’s much needed travel assistance program, allowing us to subsidize travel for volunteer WordPress contributors from around the world who would not otherwise be able to attend.
If you’d like to sponsor the 2017 WordPress Community Summit, check out the Call for Sponsors and sign up. We will be more than happy to get back to you with all details.
