WordCamp Vancouver 2014 was a great success this weekend.\u00a0 We want to give a number of thanks and share a few things with you as a way to recap the event.<\/p>\n

First off, we’d like to give another huge thanks to all of our sponsors. Without their generous support, WordCamp simply wouldn’t be possible.<\/p>\n

WordCamp Pillars: Bluehost and Wiredtree
\nWordCamp Champions: Code Poet, DreamHost and PlanetHoster
\nWordCamp Accomplice: WPML
\nVenue sponsor: BCIT
\nEnglish Bay sponsors: Forge & Smith, Jukebox Print, Lynda.com, KIMBODESIGN, Washington State University, Creative Mornings and Sparkjoy Studios
\nFalse Creek: Swanton Design, iWitness Design, IvyCat and Checkfront<\/p>\n

Additionally, a huge props\u00a0to all of the volunteers and speakers. Their involvement is crucial to making WordCamp Vancouver the quality event that we’ve had since we started a few years ago.<\/p>\n

Finally, we’d like to thank everyone who attended WordCamp Vancouver 2014 over the weekend. Without your presence and enthusiasm, we, the organizers wouldn’t be putting this together. So thank you, thank you, thank you!<\/p>\n

Our volunteer photographer Wendy Crumpler took a series of great pictures. You can find them here: https:\/\/plus.google.com\/photos\/104922361296609891454\/albums\/6040770007690005441?authkey=CJmhx8G6yLKnvwE <\/a>— thank you Wendy!<\/p>\n

If you missed a talk you really wanted to see, or just wanted to take another look at a code example or another detail, we’re pleased to let you know that all of the talks were recorded and will be published on WordPress.tv within the next few weeks. We’ll send everyone an email once those videos are available. In addition, all of our speakers have shared their presentation slides with us. You can grab them here:<\/p>\n

Finally, since WordCamp Vancouver is run as a non-profit event under the WordPress foundation’s umbrella, we’d like to share our final budget numbers with the community. This is just another step by which the WordPress community demonstrates its openness and transparency:<\/p>\n
