For nearly a decade, the Magento community has organized and hosted Magento-focused events around the world, bringing community members together to learn, share and collaborate on commerce challenges. Many people became business partners and some even became lifelong friends. At the Imagine 2018 conference Magento, an Adobe company, announced that it will partner with the organization behind the Meet Magento events and the entire global Magento community to create the new Magento Association.
The new Association is dedicated to fostering and supporting technology projects, community events, training and education, and online collaboration. The Magento community has a rich history in building collaborative programs and successful events across geographies. The Magento Association is building upon that to complete the vision: An open, healthy and powerful Magento ecosystem for continued success of future generations.
“Our mission is to advance and empower the global Magento community and commerce ecosystem through open collaboration, education, and thought leadership.”

We’re thrilled to reveal that Tamebay friend and Magento Master Rebecca Brocton is an inaugural member of the Magento Association Board of Directors. Rebecca’s expertise with Magento is superb, as is her in-depth grasp of ecommerce in general. Based in the UK, Rebecca has played in the Tamebay’s 5-a-side Ecommerce Cup and created one of the funniest but most insightful videos we’ve ever featured on Tamebay. You can follow Rebecca on Instagram, twitter and LinkedIn and YouTube.
You can stay in touch and be updated on the work of the Magento Association and be first to know of Magento events by signing up on their website.
