Plant-based business media , four markets, one stack.
Fractional CTO and day-to-day TechOps for Vegconomist and Cultivated-X by Vegconomist. Five active WordPress properties, four language editions, and the Cultivated-X launch, all under one senior engagement.
Not a project. An ongoing operation.
Vegconomist is the leading B2B media brand in the plant-based and alternative protein sector, publishing across English, German, French, and Spanish markets. The technical challenge is not a single site: it is running four live editorial properties as a coherent infrastructure while keeping each edition independent enough for its editorial team to operate without cross-market coordination.
We joined as Fractional CTO in 2024 with a mandate covering everything from the WordPress update pipeline to adops integrations and incident response. The engagement is operational, not advisory: we own the technical decisions, run the maintenance cycles, and are the first call when something breaks in production.
Alongside the ongoing Vegconomist work, we led the full technical launch of Cultivated-X by Vegconomist, a new brand within the same media group, built and shipped as a parallel workstream.
Four-market publishing infrastructure
Vegconomist operates dedicated language editions for English, German, French, and Spanish audiences. Each edition runs independently but shares a common infrastructure managed through a single fractional CTO engagement. Update cycles, security patches, and performance work are coordinated across all four to avoid editorial disruption.
Adops & revenue integrations
B2B media revenue depends on ad delivery reliability. We manage the adops layer, ad server configuration, tag manager setup, yield monitoring, ensuring that editorial publishing and commercial delivery do not interfere with each other under load.
Cultivated-X launch
Cultivated-X by Vegconomist is a standalone brand covering the cultivated meat and alternative protein sector. We led the full technical launch: infrastructure provisioning, custom WordPress theme build, editorial tooling setup, and the initial performance and security configuration before handover to the editorial team.
