Dear all, Following the initial announcement and project launch in 2021, and press release about first customers in 2022, the Wikimedia Enterprise team has today published the *first financial report* and a summary of a forthcoming *product update*.
This has been published today on the Diff blog, here: https://diff.wikimedia.org/2023/02/07/wikimedia-enterprise-financial-report-product-update/ [also available in German <https://diff.wikimedia.org/de/2023/02/07/wikimedia-enterprise-finanzbericht-und-produktupdates/> ] One of the principles <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Enterprise/Principles> of the Wikimedia Enterprise project has been “the publication of overall revenue and expenses, differentiated from those of the Wikimedia Foundation in general, at least annually”. We are therefore proud to present the inaugural edition of the Wikimedia Enterprise financial report – covering the calendar-year 2022, its first year of operations. The update also includes a description of some of the API features that have been under development. While the primary use-case is companies which consistently require very high-speed updates of very large amounts of Wikimedia content, it is important to note that there are several free-access methods. If you have written questions or comments about the update, please share them on the project’s talkpage <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Wikimedia_Enterprise> on Meta. As described in the blogpost, we consider this report covering the 2022 calendar year to be a “beta” version. We are actively seeking feedback about how its structure, content, and explanations can be improved for the next edition in late 2023, which will cover the 2022-23 fiscal year. If you prefer real-time conversation: A public meeting will be hosted by the Enterprise team this Friday, February 10 @1900 UTC to discuss this announcement - details on the project homepage <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Enterprise>. If you have any other questions please consult the FAQ <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia_Enterprise/FAQ>. Sincerely, * Liam Wyatt [Wittylama]* Senior Program Manager for *Enterprise,* *Campaigns, & WikiCite* Wikimedia Foundation
