Ask and most small business owners or bloggers will tell you how difficult it can be to find high-quality, openly licensed stock photography for their websites. If a campaign or website calls for diverse and inclusive stock photography, you’ll more than likely come up short.
That’s why WordPress.com is excited to announce the release of the Black x Tech stock photography collection! The Cocoamattic ERG, an employee resource group at Automattic, partnered with Nappy.co to release a collection of 90+ beautiful photos of Black people interacting with technology. Nappy, a company on a mission to increase the representation of Black and Brown people in openly licensed stock photography, was a natural fit to collaborate on the initiative. Nappy co-founder Jacques Bastien is a long time WordPress user, and shares the same passion for open source.
Cocoamattic ERG co-lead Santana Inniss said of the collection, “Cocoamattic is a group that represents Black/African diaspora employees working at Automattic. Part of our mission is to increase representation of Black folks in tech. We know how impactful representation can be, and seeing yourself represented in media about technology can be the jumping off point for getting into a career in tech.”
Seeing that representation of Black folks creating or engaging with technology was sorely lacking in stock photography, Cocoamattic wanted to tackle the problem head on. Santana continues, “Getting a beautiful, authentic collection of stock photos representing Black folks onto WordPress.com was so important to us. We selected Nappy for the synergy of mission, but also because photos on Nappy.co are now indexed through Openverse.org.”
Openverse, an aggregator of openly licensed media, makes the Black x Tech photos accessible from your WordPress.com website via the Media Library, or the Image and Gallery blocks.

Business-to-Business (B2B) commerce is experiencing a revolution driven largely by the mass adoption of cloud computing and the movement towards a simpler, more digital buying experiences. At the same time, cloud budgets are strong and mostly growing—IDC is predicting that cloud services will surpass USD1.7 trillion by 2026 while sustaining compound annual growth of almost 17 percent. But, with economic uncertainty, companies and organizations are challenged to “do more with less” and make the most of every dollar invested.
Cloud marketplaces offer you the ability to gain flexibility and control over your spending and make the most out of your cloud budget. This is why cloud marketplaces are expected to see a massive growth, from USD8 billion last year to USD50 billion by 20262 as predicted by Bessemer Venture Partners. To accelerate IT modernization and maximize the value of investments, we are innovating and improving Microsoft commercial marketplace to support your entire cloud portfolio.
The marketplace: Customized to your needs
There is often a misconception with cloud marketplaces that you lose touch with your vendors and are limited to “the sticker price.” We understand the complexities of enterprise deal making and the marketplace is a tool to help you simplify this process so you can focus on the innovation you need to deliver. While there is always the option to buy “off the shelf” solutions, we’re continuing to improve our custom dealmaking and private offer capabilities so you can spend smart and move fast.
With private offers, you can engage directly with partners, negotiate custom terms, pricing, and payment options, and get customized solutions delivered straight to your inbox. And with recent improvements in our marketplace, partners can create and deliver these private offers in less than 15 minutes—and eligible purchases can count towards your Microsoft Azure Consumption Commitment (MACC). We are the only cloud provider that by default applies the entire purchase* towards your commitment (and there are thousands). As more and more customers look to maximize the value of their investments, we’ve seen over 300 percent increase in customers with a MACC buying through marketplace.
Plus, the marketplace saves you the hassle of onboarding new vendors and streamlines the complexity of purchasing so it is all invoiced directly on your Azure bill. This enables you to simplify procurement and reduce legal complexity by purchasing applications under a standard contract. All solutions using the standard contract contain the same terms and conditions, so your legal team only needs to review once. And, when you purchase solutions through marketplace, you are working with the most trusted cloud and our extensive set of best-in-breed capabilities across app innovation, data and AI, infrastructure, and security.
More and more of our customers—and sellers—are thinking marketplace first when getting their cloud solution. By being marketplace first, you can cut down on time to value and manage costs based on usage. Whether you are new to the Microsoft commercial marketplace or if you’ve already been using it to find solutions for your business, we are excited to help you along your journey. Taking advantage of the resources and tools will streamline the transaction process, maximize the value of your cloud spend, and you can buy with confidence knowing that these solutions are backed by Microsoft.
These enhancements are removing the frictions in B2B commerce, and simultaneously helping you to make the most of every cloud dollar spent. Here’s how you make the most of this opportunity:
Maximizing value with partner solutions that count towards consumption commitments
