Announcing PreviousNext as a Top Tier Drupal Certified Partner
In May 2024, we were recognised as a Top Tier Drupal Certified Partner, the highest level possible in the program.
This status reflects our organisation’s long-standing commitment to Drupal's open-source project and community and the global impact of our contribution.
We’re not just increasing our involvement in and contribution to Drupal year after year; we're deeply committed to it. Whether through code contribution, volunteer roles, or event organisation, we're dedicated to enhancing the Drupal experience for everyone, from developers and site editors to decision-makers and users.
The Drupal Certified Partner program helps clients choose vendors who are deeply invested in ensuring the sustainability and advancement of the Drupal project. This includes clients with an appetite for shared contribution projects.
Of particular note is that PreviousNext achieved Top Tier partner status as a relatively small company with just over 20 staff. This is due to the way that open source contribution is embedded into our company's policies and working culture and viewed as a core element in our ongoing business success and sustainability. If you'd like to find out more about how we do this, feel free to get in touch.

From the perspective of my role on the Drupal Association board, I gave a talk at FOSDEM in February 2024 on the strategies and initiatives the Drupal community is starting to put in place to remain competitive in the enterprise market and how these approaches can be shared by other open source projects.
