Sponsors

WordCamp US 2015 hosted in Philadelphia, PA is the premier North American WordCamp – it includes two days of programmed sessions on Friday and Saturday as well a full day contributor event on Sunday.

Taking the mantle from the long running 1000 attendee premium WordPress event WordCamp San Francisco, WordCamp US will proudly host 2000 attendees for 3-days of WordPress education, inspiration, and fun.

All of our valued sponsors help support the free and open source WordPress project by donating to WordCamp US, and without them this event simply would not be possible. We’re super-grateful to all WordCamp sponsors for the support they provide to the WordPress community!

This year, we also plan to offer a limited number of $250 Jawn level microsponsorships, which will include admission for one person and will be available when general registration opens. These microsponsorships are intended for freelancers, tiny companies, or WordPress fans who wish to give a little more for their WordCamp ticket to support the event.

Jawn: $250

For those of you coming to us from outside of the Philly area let me define jawn: (plural jawns) (slang, chiefly Philadelphia) Something; any object, place or thing. Check out this jawn.

This ticket is intended for WordPress professionals or people who recognize that WordCamp US is as valuable as more traditionally-priced industry conferences and want to help support the event. If jawn is everything then it represents our microsponsor level well. You get everything you would from a General Admission ticket and a sense of satisfaction in knowing that you’re giving extra financial support. Plus you’ll be listed by name in the microsponsors thank you section on the Sponsors page!

You can purchase a Jawn sponsorship on the Tickets page: https://2015.us.wordcamp.org/tickets/

(Note: For Jawn sponsorships, there is no need to complete the sponsorship form – just buy the Jawn ticket.)
