Meet Magento France 2025 – Community Magic à la Parisienne!

Paris, what a blast! March 25th, 2025, will be etched in my heart forever. The first-ever edition of Meet Magento France absolutely delivered – energy, warmth, and that unbeatable community vibe we all live for. As someone who thrives in this incredible ecosystem, I was beyond excited to be part of this historic event, and spoiler alert – it didn’t disappoint. Not even a little.

France, You Were Glowing

You could truly feel how proud the French Magento community was to finally host this long-awaited event. Every smile, every hallway conversation, every packed session was filled with the joy of being the host for the global Magento family. It felt like a real celebration – and I was so happy to be part of it.

An Unforgettable Location

Right in the heart of Paris, just steps away from the Arc de Triomphe – the Étoile Business Center was the perfect venue for an event of this scale. Stylish, modern, and buzzing with excitement, it made everything feel that much more special.

Incredible Speaker Lineup

The agenda was packed with value – practical sessions, visionary insights, and tech deep-dives that left us thinking, “I can’t wait to implement that.” Here’s a glimpse at just a few of the English-titled talks that grabbed our attention:

• Mathias Schreiber – Magento Association – How and Why?
• Jakub Winkler – Performance That Pays: Magento Optimization for Long-Term Profitability
• Ivan Chepurnyi – 200 Domains on a Single Magento Instance with a 300€ Hosting Bill
• John Baxendale – Decoding Adobe Commerce: How to Extend and Integrate the Solution
• Thijs Feryn – Optimizing Varnish for Magento: Advanced Techniques for Performance and Scalability
• Victoria Milton – The Payment You Dream Of with Adobe Payment Services
• Willem Wigman – Level Up: The Next Stage in the Hyvä Evolution
• Michael Bouvy – Analyze Your Magento Business Data Without SQL Using AI
• Sergej Derzap – Magento Open Source: The Formula for Competitive Advantage in eCommerce
• Fred Plais – How Platform.sh Became the Backbone of Adobe Commerce Cloud

The full speaker list was massive and impressive – you know where to find it. But these talks above? Each one brought something fresh, bold, and packed with actionable insight.

One Thing We’d Love to See Next Time

If I could make one tiny wish for future editions – it would be to have all sessions in English. As international guests, we missed out on some great content because of the language barrier. And this event is just too good not to be shared with the world in full!

I know it’s only the beginning, and I can already feel how Meet Magento France will evolve into a truly global experience.

A Day to Remember – and Repeat

From the cozy welcome party to the last high-five at the venue, this event reminded me why I love this community so much. Smart, passionate people who care about what they build and about each other – that’s the secret sauce of every Meet Magento, and France nailed it.

Paris gave us beautiful moments, inspiring talks, and a glimpse of the future we’re building together in the Magento ecosystem.
