Weekly WordPress News and Updates: WordPress Global Sponsorship Program Raises Costs for 2024 to Support Expanding In-Person Events!
WordPress’ Community team has proposed a draft for the 2024 Global Community Sponsorship Program, with fees increased to cover the costs of the rapidly expanding number of in-person events. The program supports the volunteer-organized local events so that they can provide free or low-cost access for attendees. It helps companies streamline their sponsorship contributions across multiple events with less administrative overhead than it would be to sponsor individual WordCamps. The program does not include flagship events such as WordCamps Europe, Asia, and US.
The uptick in events is the direct result of the Community team’s efforts in 2023 to reactivate dormant meetup groups, bring back in-person WordCamps, and evolve the WordCamp program to make room for new event types. Companies that are interested to support WordPress’ burgeoning events program can get on board for 2024 by emailing support@wordcamp.org before November 30, 2023.
Keep WordPressing 🚀
