PressNomics v2 is in the Making

5 February 2013 by Remkus de Vries 2 Comments

If you own a WordPress business, the event to go to last year was PressNomics. In case you missed it and were sad about that – I sure was – it’s good to know there will be a second one.

It’s official. Planning is underway for PressNomics 2.0.

The idea of PressNomics is simple: Get the movers and shakers of the WordPress economy in the same physical place and bring in amazing business focused speakers to share their experience, add in some ample social time and see what happens.

A Tale of Two WordPresses: WPCS & Pressnomics

14 November 2012 by Siobhan McKeown 8 Comments

Over the past few weeks I’ve been exceptionally lucky to have attended two of the most unique WordPress events of this year: the WordPress Community Summit and Pressnomics. I’ve already attended four WordCamps (!!!) in Utrecht, Edinburgh, New York, and Lisbon, each of which had its own character and cultural flavour. I tend to go to WordCamps with a few things in mind – hang out with my WordPress friends, meet current clients, pick up new clients, share knowledge, get do a bit of partying. I’m usually successful at all of these things.

WordCamps are usually focused on doing things with WordPress, whether that’s as a user or as a developer. However, in Georgia and Arizona over the past few weeks, I’ve been involved in two quite different faces of WordPress: Community and Commercialisation.
