If you haven't experienced Open Space before, it's pretty magical. Open Space does away with the formality of traditional "eyes-forward" conferences. Instead of sitting through lectures by "experts" chosen by the conference organizers, Open Space empowers the conference participants to identify and explore the topics that are most interesting to them. People who are curious and passionate about subjects ranging from Agile methods to organizational development to software crafting bring their experience, ideas, and questions. The result is a multi-day exchange of sharing, learning, and growth.
In Open Space, you decide which sessions you attend and where the conversation goes. When you've gotten what you need out of a session, you're encouraged to move on to a different discussion where you can continue to learn. You’ll be able to talk with industry luminaries, people facing the same kinds of challenges that you do, and professionals in all phases of their careers. This makes for a dynamic environment which is engaging, unique, and fulfilling.
Conference tickets are priced to keep the conference affordable to our community. AONW is a non-profit, mission-driven organization. What you pay covers the venue and meals for the conference. Special pricing is available to students and people in career transition. Learn more at https://buytickets.at/agileopennorthwest/1881985.
The Agile Open Northwest conference is going strong after more than 15 years of building community and connection through the exchange of ideas, practices, and experiences. We hope you’ll join us in March to contribute your voice to the Pacific Northwest’s most authentic and accessible Agile gathering.
