What is the Scale Consortium?
The Scale Consortium is a group made up of representatives from some of the most prolific and successful enterprise WordPress agencies. It was created to address the evolving landscape of the enterprise layer of WordPress.
United for Enterprise WordPress Excellence
Collectively Addressing Challenges for a Seamless WordPress Experience
Our Mission
Scale Consortium exists to amplify the value of WordPress for enterprise-level solutions. We understand that the needs of enterprise buyers are unique, and our mission revolves around catering specifically to this audience. If it doesn’t align with the priorities of enterprise buyers, it’s not our focus.
The Challenge
WordPress’s strength lies in its diverse ecosystem, but this diversity also presents a challenge. The fragmented approach to the enterprise market can be confusing and less than ideal for enterprise buyers. Single-vendor platforms have historically had an edge due to their consistent messaging and positioning.
Our Solution
Working together through the Scale Consortium, we bring a unified and compelling WordPress experience to the enterprise market. Our collective efforts enable us to compete more effectively with single-vendor platforms, offering enterprise buyers clarity and a seamless experience.
Defining Success
Our success metrics are clear. We aim to scale:
The value that agencies
and service providers
derive from the
enterprise market.
The value that the
enterprise market gains
from the WordPress ecosystem.
The competitiveness
of WordPress in the
enterprise market compared
to its rivals.
The value that WordPress
projects offer enterprise buyers.

We have answers.
When was the Scale Consortium formed?
The Scale Consortium has been formally working together as a group of founding members since just after WCAsia 2023, following conversations over the preceding 6 months. Since then, several other enterprise agencies have joined the fold, and Scale Consortium has collectively run multiple in-person events at WordCamps around the world. These events are used to gather community feedback, plan new initiatives, and kickstart further discussions about enterprise involvement in WordPress.
Why does the Scale Consortium exist?
We believe that it’s crucial for enterprise agencies to collaborate and bridge the gap between WordPress as a platform and the needs of their enterprise customers.
Our mission is to inspire more enterprise companies to choose WordPress, which, in turn, drives investments back into the broader ecosystem. This creates a positive cycle of growth and success for our community and WordPress as a whole!
How do Agencies and Scale Consortium Interact?
Each agency is represented by their CEO, along with a time and resource commitment made up of specialist staff depending on the needs of the Consortium.
Strict guidelines have been put in place in order to ensure that Scale Consortium is used only for the promotion of WordPress as an enterprise solution, not for any single agency to solicit business.
Trusted by the World’s Biggest Brands
Distinguished as the CMS of choice by the world’s biggest brands, WordPress stands as a testament to its reliability, versatility, and proven ability to elevate digital experiences.
