If you’re a developer, freelancer, or working with enterprise agencies in the WordPress space, you know how fast things evolve. That’s why Human Made is putting together WP:25, a virtual event designed to explore where WordPress is headed in the enterprise world—and why it’s positioned to thrive in 2025 and beyond.

With WordPress powering over 43% of the web, it’s clear that it’s not just for bloggers anymore. Large-scale businesses are turning to WordPress for flexibility, scalability, and an open ecosystem that supports innovation. WP:25 will dig into the latest trends, industry research, and strategies for making the most of enterprise WordPress.
