Welcome! Willkommen! Bienvenu! Bienvenuti! Bainvegni!
After an amazing event in 2014, we’re happy to announce that WordCamp Switzerland 2015 is officially on the calendar!
What is WordCamp?
WordCamps are the official WordPress events around the world. They are informal, community-organized events that are put together by WordPress users like you.
Who is it for?
Everyone from casual users, small and big bloggers, designers to developers participate, share ideas, and get to know each other. In 2014, over 200 people got together, be it as users, designers, developers or otherwise. 97% of people who attended in 2014 said they’d come back so make sure you get your place!
When is it?
This year, WordCamp Switzerland will be on September 19 at the same location as last year, in the heart of Zurich. We’re also organizing a contributor day again, which will happen on September 20.
Get ready for an even more exciting WordCamp Switzerland, featuring distinguished speakers and a variety of interesting topics touching on blogging, design, and programming on the WordPress platform.
We’re now actively looking for sponsors and volunteers, so if you’re interested in that get in touch with us! Want to hold a talk? We let you know as soon as possible when the call for papers is open.
Subscribe now to our newsletter to stay up to date on the most recent news. We’ll be keeping you posted on all the details over the coming months, including speaker submissions, ticket sales and more!
What can I expect?
As soon as you walk in, you’ll get the official WordCamp T-shirt, you will receive lunch for free and we also have an after-party! Between all that and at the core of the WordCamp, we have sessions by leaders in the WordPress community talking on everything from design, development and to this growing business.
