š Welcome to Agile International Graz! š¦š¹
We are a spirited Agile Community of Practice rooted in Graz, Austria. Founded in 2021, our primary focus is building a strong, supportive network for local agile enthusiasts. However, by conducting our meetups in English and in Hybrid-mode, we aim to keep our doors open to the world, connecting our local members with international perspectives whenever possible.
š What to expect? Approximately every two months, we gather for meetups that are designed to be insightful, interactive, andāimportantlyāa lot of fun!
We believe Agile isn't just for software development; itās a mindset. Our mission is to provide a space for engaging discussions that spark new ideas for implementing agile practices in your professional career, but also in your private life.
ā¤ļø Our Community is the Heart While we host fantastic experts, the true heartbeat of Agile International Graz is our members. We are defined by the curious, friendly, and supportive people who show up to learn, share struggles, and laugh together. Whether you are an agile expert or just starting out, you are welcome here.

- Speakers: We are incredibly thankful for the many insightful speakers who have shared their wisdom with us since 2021. However, we are always hungry for fresh thoughts! If you have a diverse perspective or a new topic to share, we would love to hear from you.
- Hosts: The consistency of our meetups relies on strong relationships. We deeply value the trust we have built with our long-term venue partners who make our hybrid setup possible. At the same time, we are always open to exploring new hosting locations in and around Graz.
