— Contribution to WordPress —
I love to get involved in the WordPress community, as it’s a pleasant way to give back to WordPress what WordPress allows me to accomplish on my business and personal sites.

I co-organise the WordPress meetups in Geneva since 2013 and have been part of the WordCamps organisation teams in Swiss WordPress events since 2016. I have also been a speaker or a volunteer in several other events.

I recently bumbed up the number of hours I spend contributing, it’s now about 2-3 day per week.
I’m not sponsored and might in the future be sponsored by my own company when I will establish my LLC (later this year) and dedicate working hours to WP contribution instead of doing on my free time/sleeping time like now. I hope to also be able to sponsor another person for a few hours. Both under the “Five for the Future” program.
