Growing more agile is a journey that continues after you leave the classroom. To succeed, you need access to professional development and to a support network: peers, mentors, and experts who have been where you are and can help you find the path forward.

In the past five years, we’ve invested over $15 million in relationships, agile events, and innovation so that you can build a world of work that is more joyful, prosperous, and sustainable.

The Scrum Alliance Global Scrum Gathering is a 3-day experience for agile practitioners and changemakers, of all levels, ready to connect, learn, and grow. Attendees gain invaluable insights from world leaders in the field of agile while also immersing in personalized coaching sessions, career services, and more. This event is the ideal space for leveling up your skills and connecting with the like-minded community you need to thrive in the ever-changing world of work.

In 2004, the scrum community gathered together for the first time for a collaborative event, in which individuals with a common mindset met to discuss and learn from each other in a casual atmosphere focused on communication, feedback, and collaboration. The gathering was intended for everyone interested in scrum and agile, regardless of career path or industry. Since then, the gatherings have only continued to grow and impact more members of the agile community across the globe.
