This episode of The WP Minute+ is a conversation with Raquel, the organizer behind PressConf, about bringing the event to Europe for the first time.

PressConf EU is coming to Barcelona October 27–30, and Raquel explains why she believes the European WordPress community needs a space where people can have more open conversations about business, money, risk, and the future of WordPress.

Matt and Raquel also talk about the pressure facing WordPress businesses, why leaders need to make deliberate choices instead of constantly reacting to the latest industry changes, and what attendees can expect from the European event — including speakers, networking, and the intentionally unrecorded conversations that make PressConf different.
