Sponsoring WordCamp Sacramento is a great opportunity to demonstrate your support for the WordPress community. To keep costs down for our attendees, we look to sponsors to help make WordCamp an exciting part of our thriving open-source community.
For 2017, we’re expecting 500 attendees.
Event attendees are made up freelancers, entrepreneurs, small businesses, consultants, designers, developers, bloggers, copywriters, and hobbyists, as well as employees and team members from large organizations and corporations who work with WordPress. Skill level and experience with the WordPress platform range from those brand new to WordPress working on their very first website to savvy-professionals who make their living with WordPress.

Become A Sponsor
If you have benefited from using WordPress and now is the perfect time to give something back — and we THANK YOU!
Note: If your brand represents a software product, it must be GPL friendly. If you or your company deals in WordPress-derivative works (plugins, themes, etc), those must be 100% GPL (not split license) or compatible, the same guidelines followed on WordPress.org. Sponsors may apply but will not be guaranteed speaking spots. Funds must be received before announcing sponsorships. Sponsors must honor all media deadlines.
WordCamp Sacramento takes great pride in working with sponsors closely to ensure best experience for everyone involved. We will work with you to find creative ways to utilize your sponsorship for highest possible returns and at the same time keep the event classy and fun. Please share with us your ideas, thoughts, and feedback at any time before and during the event.
Hello!
When I signed up, I did so as a Community Sponsor (around $150?), can you tell me if, and how this will be publically recognized? I have the invite for the sponsors dinner, but I recall something about a mention (though I realize this would be something smaller than the $500 sponsors).
Thank you in advance,
Isla Waite
ps. please don’t look at our website… we’re rebuilding, on wordpress of course!
Hi Isla – All community sponsor tickets will get a thank you via social media during the event weekend and on the WordCamp blog (post coming soon). Thanks for supporting WordCamp!
That is wonderful news. Thank you Brian, and I look forward to the event! Isla
