The Philadelphia WordPress Meetup Group is a group of WordPress enthusiasts in and around the Philadelphia area. We love working with WordPress in a variety of different ways. Join us and learn about WordPress and all it has to offer!
Meet other local users of WordPress, the Internet's most popular blogging platform and fastest growing content management system. Gather and discuss the best ways to work WordPress, develop and design themes and plugins, tips and tricks for WordPress, and more. This Group is for beginners and experts alike so come out and share your love for WordPress!
We plan on discussing a variety of topics including WordPress usage, designing WordPress Themes and styles, creating WordPress Plugins and Widgets, and using WordPress to its full potential.

INNOVATION WOMEN MISSION STATEMENT:
"Our mission is to provide equal visibility opportunities for women, supporting career development, business success, thought leadership and diversity. We’re also here to help event managers avoid the all-male, all-pale and all-stale panels we see so often at industry conferences and events. We need more diversity onstage."Since 2015, we have consistently grown and placed hundreds of women on stages across the world. We have also helped hundreds of event managers successfully build diverse panels and events. We connect women with visibility opportunities and help them move forward in their businesses or careers. We also want to ensure that our platform reflects the breadth and depth of our world so events can showcase that diversity and inspire future generations."
