Financial working group

By Eike Hein, David Edmundson and Neofytos Kolokotronis

In 2018, KDE e.V. received several large one-time donations raising our annual income to a record 591,000 EUR. In addition the growth of our income through regular sponsorship and donations exceeded our expectations.

Also in 2018, we increased our spending on development sprints by 12,000 EUR and provided financial support for more people to attend our Akademy conference than in any previous year.

These are strongly linked developments: As our community and ecosystem experience growth, so does the overall profile of our financial activities. The expanded activities then enable our community to attract additional sponsors and benefactors.

In 2019, we continue to drive forward this virtuous cycle. We will put a larger percentage of the organization's accumulated savings, which grew in 2018 by 381,000 EUR, into the community's activities, e.g. its elected long-term goals, than in 2018.
