Currently Digital Director for a news group dedicated to Africa. He has used WordPress for almost all his projects since 2008, mostly developing news sites, event sites and job boards. He is also involved in the WordPress community and is one of the WordCamp Paris \u2013 and more recently the next WordCamp Europe \u2013 organizers. Finally, as everyone he has a secret life building the WP-AppKit<\/a> plugin with the fine people at Uncategorized Creations.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n

\nBeatrice Otto<\/h2>\n\nSustainability: solutions spotter and bridge builder. Language lover: writer, author, Chinese speaker. Life quest: personal and human fulfillment on a flourishing planet.<\/p>\n
Potential fulfilled is what drives me \u2013 working with creative, questing people, projects and organizations, to contribute to a slightly saner world, and inspire more sustainable business models, products and services. For 20 years I have worked to help companies rethink how they operate so they can serve humanity while keeping the environment in balance: first working on sustainable design and innovation as an independent consultant in the UK, and then leading Member Relations at the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD) in Geneva.<\/p>\n
A lifelong lover of language(s), writing and books, I wrote the award-winning Fools Are Everywhere, a global study of the court jester in history, literature and drama; a universal role we still need for its fearless truth-telling and the use of humour to promote humanism among ruling elites, or at least to reduce the abuse of power. Now developing a series of adventures led by a jester aimed at children between eight and eighty-eight years old (lucky numbers in Chinese).<\/p>\n
The love of beautiful writing led to the creation of www.writingredux.com<\/a> to share thousands of sparkling and original metaphors and quotations collected over decades of attentive reading and occasional thinking. It is intended to inspire, question and enchant, and to raise the bar in the quality of writing we are willing to accept \u2013 so much on the internet being formulaic and inauthentic.<\/p>\nLastly, I grew up with a family connection to China which prompted me to study its language, literature and history during ten years of study in Leeds, Edinburgh and Fudan University in Shanghai. It was the existence of Chinese court fools when Europe was still in bear skins that gave me the idea to study this quirky character at a global level.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\nAri Leviatan<\/h2>\n\nI\u2019m a WordPress professional, originally from Israel, living today in Geneva Switzerland.<\/p>\n
I\u2019ve been using WordPress since 2010, when I was running a webdesign shop in Tel Aviv, building numerous sites based on this amazing platform.<\/p>\n
Between the years 2012-2015, I earned my MBA degree from the University of Michigan and then had the privilege to work for Techstars on the Disney Accelerator, and for Disney Consumer Products. In both places I spent most of my time thinking up new technology-based businesses. This gave me not only the experience, but also the drive, for running my own eCommerce and app development business today.<\/p>\n
When it comes to WordPress, I particularly like working with it not only because of how easy it is to use and build websites and webapps with, but also because of the large thriving community of users. I never faced any serious challenge while building with WordPress, either because there was someone who faced similar challenges before me and shared their experience, or there was somebody who was willing to help.<\/p>\n
Over the years, I\u2019ve built anything from simple one-page websites, to complete eCommerce powerhouses. I write my own themes and my own plugins.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n
\nCarole Mauron<\/h2>\n\nPassionate about all aspects of computing and programming, I was naturally driven towards the worlds of web and open source. I created my own company, App \u2018n\u2019 Web, in 2008. Since then I enjoy designing and creating websites and developing applications for my clients. I am also a trainer: I teach WordPress and other CMS at the ifage among others. I find sharing knowledge and experience enriching from both a professional and a personal perspective.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
