Our Experience at WordCamp Europe 2022

7 June 2022 1 min read

WordCamp Europe is an annual gathering for WordPress professionals, attracting some of the most notable names in the business.

A large, diverse crowd of people gathered outdoors for a group photo. The participants are smiling and raising their hands, conveying a sense of excitement and unity. The setting appears to be in front of a building, with clear skies overhead.

This years conference took place in Portugal and featured a variety of excellent speakers from all over the globe, including our very own CTO, Paul Halfpenny.

Paul was invited to speak during the lightning talk segment on Day 1 of the conference and discussed our free WP-DXP Plugin and how businesses can extend the Gutenberg block editor.

We were thrilled to be part of WordCamp Europe 2022! It was great to meet so many like-minded individuals, hear first-hand about what’s going on in the WordPress community and provide an insight into our WP-DXP plugin.
