WordCamp Vienna 2022

Why Blockonomics is Sponsoring WordCamp — Vienna 2022?

If there’s one thing that we at Blockonomics believe in its the spreading of ideas to benefit society. That’s why we operate, to better society in our own little niche and make it easier for business owners to sell their goods and services online though Bitcoin. Our software is also open source. WordCamps are a prime example of this same idea. It is a group of people getting together as a community and sharing ideas to help everyone who uses WordPress.

Therefore it stands to reason we’d be proud to supporting such initiatives. Sponsoring the Vienna WordCamp 2022 is a great honor. Our fully remote team has been planning to organize a get together, and the opportunity presented itself to kill two birds with one stone as it were. We get to support a great get together and meet together for the first time in a long time.

Here are some more in depth reasons why sponsoring the Vienna WordCamp 2022 is a thing we are very proud of.

We get to Give Back

We are the number one Bitcoin payment processor on WordPress. The vast majority of our clients use WordPress and WooCommerce to build and run their ecommerce shops. And we couldn’t do it without them. But we also couldn’t have become number one without support from other devs, entrepreneurs, and users that make WordPress so popular. WordPress is used in so many countless ways, and we are proud to have done our little part to make it slightly better.

But we want to give back to that community. By sponsoring these get togethers we can help ensure they will continue far into the future. These platforms for the exchange of ideas is vital to help WordPress to continue to grow and we want to continue them.

And the Vienna WordCamp has some of the finest exchange of ideas. Looking at the schedule one can see wonderful panels, both in English and German, ranging in topics from personal branding on WordPress to ecommerce in the EU.

We get to Share and Receive Criticism

But of course as a business, we also want to share our products. The Vienna WordCamp gives us a good place to share our newest endevours in the WordPress ecommerce sphere. We can connect with many clients and show them what we have to offer.

But more importantly we can receive feedback. We thrive on customer feedback, that is part of what made us number 1 on WordPress. By being able to talk with customers in person, show them what we offer, and hear what they need, we can improve our services quite a bit. Sales and Marketing staff won’t just be on the ground, but our developers as well. They will be there to be able to handle the technical specifics, and to directly hear the feedback so we can better implement it. That way we know we are listening to our clients.

In Summary

We are very excited to sponsor the Vienna WordCamp 2022. As the number one WordPress Bitcoin payment processor, the WordPress community is something dear and precious to us. The software world thrives on the exchanging of ideas and we want to help facilitate that where ever we can. If you make your way to Vienna on April 24–25 please stop by and see us.We’ll be running a booth in the exhibition hall and will have some free goodies and an opportunity to learn more about us! We’re excited for it!
