  • Hands-on Agile 2025 Is Here: From Concept-Based to Context-Based Agility

    Hands-on Agile 2025 is Here: From Concept-Based to Context-Based Agility

    We’re thrilled to announce that the virtual Hands-on Agile 2025 is officially on the horizon and will be free to attend from February 4-6, 2025. This time, we will focus on how Agile needs to evolve from concept-based agility to context-based agility.

    But before we discuss what that means, let’s take a step back and consider why Hands-on Agile 2025 is going to be a can’t-miss event for everyone in the agile community.

    For those unfamiliar, Hands-on Agile isn’t just another conference. It’s an event built around the Barcamp model, meaning it’s a self-organized, community-driven gathering with one goal: Sharing knowledge and experiences.

    From February 4 to 6, 2025, we will spend three energizing days engaging in sessions, practicing agile games, sharing war stories, and learning directly from each other. Hands-on Agile is all about creating a space for practitioners, coaches, leaders, and newcomers to connect in a truly hands-on way.

    The Free Hands-on Agile 2025 is Here: From Concept-Based to Context-Based Agility — Join us from February 4-6, 2025 — Berlin-Product-People.com
