Bay Area Drupal Camp - September 25-26, 2025

#1703394: Bay Area Drupal Camp - September 25-26, 2025 | Oakland, CA

Description:	For more than 16 years, the Bay Area Drupal Camp has gathered thousands from a worldwide community of Drupal users, developers, marketers, and content specialists to share their expertise, level up their skills, and make new friends, in the intellectual and cultural heart of the Bay Area. Whether it's your first time attending or your tenth, we look forward to seeing you! Emma leads UX research for Drupal CMS and Drupal Core. She first encountered Drupal running the UX Service at the University of Edinburgh, and she’s been shaping Drupal’s human-centered future ever since. A frequent speaker across Europe, this will be her first BADCamp! For many Drupal professionals, the economics of small-budget projects just don’t make sense. Between setup complexity, ongoing maintenance demands, and hosting costs, it can feel impossible to serve clients who have limited budgets in a way that doesn't create regrets. But there's something special about building smaller projects, as well as personal projects, with Drupal, and we've got it down to a science. In this session, we’ll explore practical strategies for delivering low-budget Drupal sites efficiently and sustainably—without compromising on quality or maintainability. We'll cover technical patterns for rapid site delivery, using modern tools and techniques to increase efficiency, managing scope to keep expectations realistic, and how to structure maintenance in ways that reduce overhead while creating recurring revenue opportunities. This talk is geared toward freelancers, agencies, and site builders looking to expand their client base, diversify their offerings, and build smarter—not just harder. Whether you're supporting nonprofits, startups, or small businesses, you’ll leave with concrete ideas to serve these clients profitably with Drupal.
