GravityView 2019 Diversity Grant

The GravityView Diversity Grant helps underrepresented WordPress community members attend PressNomics. Learn how the grant supports broader inclusion in the WordPress business space.

Take your seat at the table.

A single event had a big impact on my success.

In 2015, I attended PressNomics 3. I had just launched GravityView, my first premium WordPress plugin. Before GravityView, I developed and released free plugins on WordPress.org, but had never sold any products. I wanted to learn more about being in the WordPress business space.

I was scared to attend: the conference included many leaders and influential people in WordPress whom I followed on Twitter and read about on websites like WP Tavern and Post Status.

That first year, I pushed through my fears by talking to people I admired. I met a ton of people. Their advice helped me grow GravityView. Since then, every PressNomics conference further cements our relationships; we are now colleagues that know and support each other in our work.

The connections I make at PressNomics are the most valuable of my career. I want to share that opportunity with others.

I am proud to sponsor a new attendee of PressNomics 6 in Tucson, Arizona in 2019.
