Agile Open Holland 2009

We’re running another Agile Open conference this year! It’s scheduled for September 10 & 11, in Baarn (right in the middle of The Netherlands).  Agile Open is a two day, full Open Space conference, interactive, peer-to-peer, intense, with lots of fun & learning.

This year we’re organizing it together with Agile Holland. Many thanks to VxCompany for helping us out by providing the venue. 

The conference theme is:

My method is bigger than yours…or is it?

A development method is nothing more than a named cloud – a set of practices, principles and values labeled under a common name. Whether you realize it or not, each of these named clouds have fuzzy boundaries and overlaps with others. Examples of named clouds you may be familiar with include Scrum, eXtreme Programming, Test Driven Development, DSDM, Lean, Refactoring and more recently Kanban, User Story Mapping, and Dimensional Planning.

This year, we have space for 80 participants. See the announcements on the Agile Open website (English) and the Agile Holland website (Dutch) for details.

Hope to see you in Baarn in September!
