WCUS2022 is Announcing Speakers – Round 2. So, here is the list.
This year will be the first in-person WordCamp US since 2019 and will be held at the Town and Country San Diego. WordCamp US 2022 is gearing up to take place on 9-11 September 2022 in San Diego, California. The event is nearing and with that, the preparations are at their peak. There are so many things to take care of in order to deliver a grand event. Likewise, Speakers are the core part of the WordCamp. They are one of the reasons why many people enjoy attending WordCamp.
The WCUS2022 team had announced the first round of WCUS 2022 confirmed speakers earlier this week, who are going to deliver ‘Development Talks’. And now, the team has published WCUS2022 Announcing Speakers Round 2 .
So, without any further ado, join us in welcoming our second-round speakers at WordCamp US 2022 in San Diego.
