What is WordCamp Wilmington?

WordCamp is the WordPress Foundation’s official conference for the WordPress website building platform.

There are more than 100 annual WordCamps held across the globe each year, where tens of thousands software engineers, designers, webmasters and business marketers go to learn about web publishing. In 2016, the Cape Fear metro area was determined to be an emerging tech market and the WordPress Foundation decided to invest in a WordCamp conference here.

What is the WordPress platform?

For prospective sponsors who are less familiar with web tech, WordPress is an open-source software platform that powers 30 percent of all websites on the Internet. It currently holds a 60 percent market share on all newly published websites. If your company has a presence on the web, it is very likely using WordPress.

Why be a WordCamp Wilmington Sponsor?

WordCamp is Wilmington’s premiere tech conference on Internet publishing, digital marketing best practices and website development. If your business is interested in targeting high-tech individuals and small business owners, this is your conference.
