Open Space conferences on Agile Software Development

Welcome!

Movements really rise or fall on the strength of on-going social occasions - XP user group meetings, XP Days, XP and Agile conferences, and the Agile Open Conference are the epicenters of the agile movement. Agile Open conferences are Open Space events intended for software development and business people from all walks of life ... an amazingly open, warm and lively community space where people spark new insights in and relationships for collaborative (software) development and doing business together.

Agile Open California 2009 - September 14-15 & October 15-16

We're excited to announce that there will be two gatherings this year: Agile Open Northern California and Agile Open Southern California.

If you are:

  • Experienced in or just starting Agile practices in software development, business or leadership.
  • Challenged or inspired by the emergence of new techniques in traditional environments.
  • Ready to spend two collaborative days in an Open Space format sharing best practices, discussing concerns and envisioning the future of "common sense" development
  • Hoping that you find tomorrow before it finds you.

Then join us for an Agile Open California Gathering this year.
