scrum day conference

Schedule

This isn't your same old conference. Scrum is a team sport, so we've designed a conference that unleashes the power of the team.

​

Scrum Day opens with a powerful keynote activity, after which participants are invited to attend break-out sessions.  Break-out sections are held on topics for Product Owners, Developers, Executives and Scrum Masters.  Each speech is self-contained, and you can go to any individual speech that sparks your interest.

​

Don't miss out on our closing activity where keynote Darin Haris will lead participants through a series of discussions designed to help synthesize the learnings from the event and end on a positive and thought provoking note.
