Biography

Hi, I am Boris, and I am active in the TYPO3 community for more than 20 years now. I think the first sprint I attended was the relaunch of the old typo3.org website. Since then, I’ve been working in various teams like the Editorial Team, Marketing Team and about 10+ years now in the TYPO3 Education Committee.

As the CEO of web-vision, I'm a big believer in giving back to the TYPO3 community and open-source projects in general. Here at web-vision, we're so lucky to have Stefan Bürk on our team. He's a TYPO3 Core Developer and he dedicates 80% of his working time to TYPO3, all on our behalf. 

During the past years, I’ve been constantly working in various ways for the TYPO3 project, like:

* Worked on typo3.org Relaunch Sprints and later in the Editorial Team

 * Built the first iteration of TYPO3 Merchandising Shop

* Started TYPO3 Agency Meetup Days

* Author of the TCCC learning book

* Education Committee work in general

* CertiFUNcation organization

* TYPO3 Association Board

* Since 05/2023 Vice President of the TYPO3 Association

* Since 07/2023 web-vision employed Stefan Bürk as 80% Core Developer

* Worked on the TYPO3 Association Strategy 

* Introduced the TYPO3 Association Consulting Hours with my open calendar each Friday of the year, available in my links.

My fields of responsibility are:

Fundrasing, Stakeholder & Membership Engagement

Recently, I started a petition to have open-source work recognised as volunteering for the common good in Germany: https://www.openpetition.de/petition/statistik/anerkennung-von-open-source-arbeit-als-ehrenamt-in-deutschland#petition-main
