Our mission is to build the Pacific Northwest into a PHP community powerhouse by connecting the Pacific Northwest with the greater PHP community. The local PHP User Group meets twice a month and has almost 1,000 members on Meetup. Thank you for your support of the community, we look forward to working more closely with you soon. Spawned from the PHPDX User Group that meets twice a month and has almost 1,000 members. Our organizing committee features members with international speaking experience, active members of the Open Source community, and strong ties to the PHP conference global circuit. The event will be held at the University Place Hotel & Conference Center, which will be completely reserved for the Conference for the duration of the event. This is a unique opportunity for an event that can deliver education to the attendees, while at the same time investing in a structure connected to PSU, a win-win circumstance if there ever was one. The facility will offer plenty of spaces for talks, workshops, and social events (did we mention the Hotel pool will be open?), alongside affordable rooms, which we hope even locals will take advantage of. Reaching the location is also extremely easy, as it sits across from a Max Line stop, and is served directly by shuttles to and from the airport.
