What we’re about
Women in Agile Toronto is a community based on the belief that diversity empowers the agile professional community. We gather to share and support those who are building their understanding and reputation in the Agile community.
We aim to provide a forum for thoughtful, intentional, and open discussion. We believe that magic moments occur by just bringing people together and giving them a place to see themselves and be themselves.
