The Story Behind Checkout Summit: the New WooCommerce Conference

In this episode of the PublishPress Podcast, Rodolfo Melogli shares his journey from the early days of WooCommerce to the creation of his new Checkout Summit conference. Checkout Summit is a new WooCommerce conference that's taking place in Sicily in April 2026. If you work with WooCommerce, you should be there. This is a conference we've been missing in the WordPress space. Rodolfo's aim with this conference is to prioritize great content and valuable networking. Rodolfo started as a civil engineer building roads in Ireland, before becoming a baker, and then a WooCommerce expert under the "Business Bloomer" brand. He takes us through the ups and downs of putting on a large event for the first time.
