Our Sponsors
WordCamp Kent would not be possible without our generous sponsors. WordCamp tickets are limited to a maximum of $20 per day, but sponsorships empower us to provide you with an experience valued much higher than the $40 ticket. If you see any of our sponsors at the event, please thank them!
