World Conference in 2013<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Speakers<\/h2>\n<p>In the past couple of years\u00a0WordCamp Miami has made an effort to reach out to those outside of the WordPress &#8220;bubble&#8221;. One of our first &#8220;non-WP CMS&#8221; speakers: <a href=\"https:\/\/miami.wordcamp.org\/2015\/speaker\/jason-nickerson\/\">Jason Nickerson<\/a> give a talk on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/miami.wordcamp.org\/2015\/session\/open-source-cms-how-joomla-and-wordpress-influence-each-other\/\">How Joomla and WordPress Influence Each Other<\/a>. This year we would love to see speaker\u00a0submissions from other non-WP communities that our attendees would appreciate and relate to.<\/p>\n<p>Since WordCamps do not usually compensate speakers for travel, we would expect possible speakers to be from the South or Central Florida area, but location really is not a factor. If you&#8217;ve never been to a WordCamp before, you might have questions which we are happy to answer.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/2016.miami.wordcamp.org\/2015\/10\/12\/call-for-speakers\/\">Click here to read more about speaker submissions and how to submit<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Attendees<\/h2>\n<p>We are extending an official invite to any dedicated Drupal and\/or Joomla developers to come to WordCamp Miami and be a part of South Florida&#8217;s open source community. Not only are we making an official invite, but we have several (read: very limited quantity) of free and\/or discounted tickets to\u00a0any established contributors of the Drupal or Joomla project.<\/p>\n<p>So if you are not a WordPress developer, but work with another open-source solution like Drupal or Joomla, please submit a speaker application. If you have questions, contact <a href=\"mailto:miami@wordcamp.org\">miami@wordcamp.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>But no matter what you develop in &#8211; then we would love to have you at one of the biggest local web conferences in Miami and one of the largest WordCamps in the United States.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WordCamps draw those interested in WordPress, but they also strive to be welcome places for ANY developer of any platform to learn more on open-source and web related technologies.
