Two of our founders, Tom Willmot & Karim Marucchi, shared about the Scale Consortium with Boye & Company in one of their CMS Experts Calls.
What's the Scale Consortium all about? The mission for Scale Consortium is quite simple: To inspire more enterprise companies to choose WordPress. The Scale Consortium is a newly formed group made up of representatives from some of the most prolific and successful enterprise WordPress agencies. It was created to address the evolving landscape of the enterprise layer of WordPress and formed just last year in 2023. It makes good sense for the WordPress community to work more formally together, but specifically getting agencies to collaborate through ups and downs remains tricky. From the customer point of view, it’s long been confusing to navigate the immense WordPress community and we’ve often heard from group members that getting the implementation right remains tricky, in particular for those complex challenges faced by large, global organisations. Since being formed, several other enterprise agencies have joined the Scale Consortium, so that as of writing 10 agencies are a part of it. In a recent members' call we heard from two of the founding members Karim Marucchi at Crowd Favorite and Tom Willmot at Human Made. The conversation started with the problem they are trying to solve and you can find the summary here: https://lnkd.in/d-ZPusED The conversation about WordPress, selecting the right CMS, open source and how agencies collaborate naturally continues in our peers groups and conferences. In Europe, don’t miss the Boye Aarhus 24 conference in November, where we have a dedicated CMS Experts conference track and in January it’s time for CMS Kickoff 25 in Florida, where Karim will also join us in person.
