August WordPress Meetup

Hello friends,

Good to see you again after a small holiday break last month when too many of us were out of town. But you know the saying - Good things come for those who wait.

Our invited speaker in August is Ionut Neagu, co-founder and CEO of ThemeIsle (http://themeisle.com) and CodeinWP (http://codeinwp.com/blog/).

Ionut has a broad experience with WordPress, developing sites for clients, growing a 250k visitors blog with WordPress news, tips and guides, building the popular Zerif theme with +100k active installs. He is now leading a 15 people team remotely and has many stories to tell.

Ionut will undergo a Q&A session together with our host Marius Vetrici and the rest of the curious audience wanting to find out more about how to run a business for WordPress users (to get an idea about the scale of it, check out the ThemeIsle transparency reports (http://www.codeinwp.com/blog/category/transparency/)). Please send us your questions for Ionut after joining the event.
