Call for Speakers for WordCamp Toronto 2016

Posted on by

Call for speakers for WCTO 2016 is officially open!

If you have a passion and knowledge about WordPress and you know how to engage the audience, we want you!

The agenda for this year will be focused on JavaScript, REST API & JSON. However, we will have several tracks, like always, so if you have a topic worth sharing for beginners, developers or designers, please submit the speaker application form.

Here are few tips to stand out from the crowd when submitting the talks:

– Put a new spin on old talks.
– Explain what you learned while solving a problem.
– Take the form of a case study, or a live or scripted example.
– Tell us what is new and exciting on the horizon for WordPress users & developers.
– Teach us something new.

We strongly believe that WordPress connects people so whether you are a developer, designer, small business owner or owner/employee of a large company that rely on WordPress, if you feel that your story will benefit the community, we want to hear your ideas!

The deadline to submit the speaker application is June 30th @ midnight. Get yours in soon or check out our Become A Speaker page to learn more about it!

Call for Sponsors for WordCamp Toronto 2016

Posted on by

If your business runs on WordPress it makes sense to become our sponsor. Not only will you earn some good karma by giving back to the community, but you will also have the opportunity to mix, mingle and meet with WordPress developers, designers, users and business owners from all over the world.

In the past few years WordCamp Toronto attracted more than 400 people yearly. This year, we are hoping to have even more people attending as we have been working hard in securing the venue in downtown Toronto. Plus, the first year ever, WordCamp Toronto will be on August 6th & 7th and there is nothing better than spending a nice, summer weekend with your fellow WordPressers.

As we would like to keep the ticket prices low ($20 per person per day) and still offer great presentations and wonderful speakers, we need your help to cover the cost of the event.

If you decide to become WordCamp Toronto 2016 sponsor, you will support the WordPress community, gain great exposure for your business via our website & social media channels and have our unending gratitude.

You can find more information about our sponsorship levels here!

Please, feel free to contact us if you have any questions.
