Mission
The Philadelphia Area Tech Association (PATA) runs a variety of initiatives aimed at supporting the open source content management software community and its growth. The two main focuses of the Association are CMSPhilly.org - the online home of the open source community, and CMSPhilly (formerly Drupaldelphia), an annual regional conference. We run monthly meetings open to the community, to connect job seekers and employers, and to bring together marketers, agencies, and leaders to create and distribute open source materials that help grow open source content management software adoption. The PATA provides ongoing financial support for students through ad hoc scholarship awards.
