Speaker Application

WordCamp Joburg Call for Speakers
We’re thrilled to announce that WordCamp Johannesburg 2016 is officially accepting speaker applications!

The innaugural WordCamp Johannesburg will be held in Midrand, Johannesburg, South Africa November 18-19, 2016, bringing together WordPress enthusiasts from all over Southern Africa. We’re the largest WordPress group in Africa and we are looking to build a program packed with amazing presentations which reflects the diversity of the WordPress community and we want you to be a part of it!

What We’re Looking For

WordCamp Johannesburg showcases the best of WordPress and the WordPress Community. We’re particularly interested in hearing from those who have used WordPress in interesting, innovative, and significant ways. Whether the open source software was used to deliver something technically amazing or whether WordPress was the foundation for creating something meaningful in the community, we want to know about it. We’re also looking for dynamic and versatile speakers to talk about how they use WordPress to grow their business, develop advanced plugins, tell their stories, and much much more.

We also want to hear voices from outside the WordPress community. If you work on other Open Source projects or web design and development in general and think the WordPress community could benefit from your story we want it told at WordCamp Johannesburg.
