Agile 20 Reflect Festival
20 years ago on February 11-13, 2001, at The Lodge at Snowbird Ski resort in the Wasatch mountains of Utah, 17 people met to talk, ski, relax, and try to find common ground: a set of values based on trust and respect promoting organizational models based on individuals, collaboration and innovation. What emerged was, “The Agile Manifesto.”
Agile communities across the world will be celebrating 20 years of Agile Manifesto in 2021. “Agile 20 Reflect Festival” is a global community-led free Agile festival. The watch words of the festival, “Curiosity, Collaboration, Community, Humanity, Dialogue and Fun!”
It’s a lovely concept to organize a world agile community party.
We are bringing all the Feb’21 Agile events in Belgium under the umbrella of the Agile 20 Reflect Festival.
This event is organized in collaboration with Agile20Reflect festival.
