You're invited to take part in the ALE Unconference, where you have the power to address the topics in Agile & Lean Software Development that interest you most.

Power Transformance

We'll create our program together in Zurich during this gathering which connects 300 thought-leaders, practitioners, and partners in Europe's network for Agile & Lean Software Development. Open Space provides enough spontaneous structure to get started.  

With an open program, we rely on a guiding theme. Explore the meaning and impact of Agile & Lean Power Transformance for your specific business and community needs.

Read more about the open space program.

Check-out the outline for each day right here.

This conference is different. We have a guiding theme, but we don't have a fixed program. You will create the program and agenda together at the event. The program will emerge around your business needs and our theme.

In the next days, we will begin announcing  Seed sessions' which are our  keynotes, short talks & workshops prepared in advance. We'll channel a very small stream of these sessions to trickle through the open space. If you choose to cultivate the idea seeds they will grow to entwine with your ideas emerging in the Open Space program.
