Thank You Each and Everyone of You! WordCamp Pokhara – A Grand Success!

On a special note, we would like to thank each and everyone of you for making WordCamp Pokhara 2018 a grand success. We concluded main day WordCamp Pokhara on Nov 24th. This was our very FIRST event under the name of WordCamp Pokhara.

Without YOUR support, we would not have been this successful. So, we would like to thank all who helped making WordCamp this grand and awesome. Without Sponsors, WordCamp Pokhara would have never happened. Thank you to all our sponsors and supporters who have supported this event and making it available to WordPress enthusiasts.

We would like to thank the organizers and volunteers; months were spent planning this event and without everyone’s input and hard work it wouldn’t be a successful camp. We’re grateful for each person’s unique perspective and the experiences that they draw from to keep each event interesting and engaging from year to year.

Special thanks to all speakers for sharing their knowledge and experience to all WordPressers. Big thanks to all attendees who participated the event helped making the event a success. Also, thanks to all who could not attend the venue, but always helped in the organization of the event and support every possible way for the WordCamp.

WordCamp Pokhara 2018 has ended, and like this year we would be announcing next year’s WordCamp soon. Stay tuned on our social channels! We hope to make next year’s WordCamp even better and bigger!

Together we thrive and I for one look forward to great things to come.
