WordPress powers over 43% of the web. Since 2006, WordPress community members have held a total of 1100+ WordCamps in 377 cities, 65 countries, and six continents.
Call for Media Partners: WordCamp Asia 2023
WordCamp Asia 2023 is the first flagship WordCamp in Asia happening from 17-19 February 2023. So far, there have been only a few flagship WordCamps in different regions and regional WordCamps draw more attention than the city-based WordPress event from media, users, and businesses.
We chose Thailand to be the first country to host WordCamp Asia due to its strategic location and affordability. In Asia, there are a total of 120+ WordPress user groups across 20+ countries with over 120,000 members. We also had 130+ WordCamps across 18 Asian countries & 52 cities. These events were all ran by community volunteers.
The organizing team of WordCamp Asia 2023 consists of volunteers from 13 Asian countries. We plan to welcome at least 1,300 attendees coming from all around the world. We also envision that having this WordCamp will grow a stronger WordPress community in Asia.
We welcome the opportunity for a mutually beneficial media partnership with magazines, newspapers, TV stations, radio stations, bloggers, influencers, WordPress enthusiasts, and freelance journalists. It is an excellent opportunity for media teams to promote their platform, grow visitors, and present exciting and diverse content for their audience.
WordCamp Asia 2023 is a 3-day event that takes place before and over a weekend.
- The first day is called Contributor Day. Attendees volunteer to actively give back to WordPress by contributing to various teams within the WordPress open source project.
- The following two days consist of different tracks of seminars, presentations, and workshops on technical, design, and business aspects of the WordPress ecosystem. All speakers are of high caliber and freely give their time and expertise.
