AI is no longer a future consideration, it is actively transforming how teams plan, communicate, and deliver. This retrospective is your opportunity to stay ahead of the curve, learn from the global Atlassian community, and connect with peers who are navigating the same opportunities and challenges right here in Nairobi.
The global conference for AI-forward teams, their leaders, and the apps and agents that fuel them. As Atlassian moves beyond the "AI hype," Team '26 has introduced a fundamental shift in how teams operate: moving from simple automation to true Human + AI collaboration. But what does this mean for the Kenyan tech ecosystem?

Join us for an exclusive retrospective event where we break down the most impactful announcements from Anaheim. We will move past the demos to explore how Atlassian’s new AI-powered system of work including Rovo agents and new AI capabilities in Jira and Confluence; can be deployed at scale to solve real-world challenges.
Target Audience:

  • Atlassian users
  • DevOps Engineers
  • IT Professionals
  • Project Managers
  • Team Leads in Nairobi.
