What you can expect from the day
The conference will attempt to find a pragmatic balance between “hand-waving enthusiast” and “stuck-in-the-mud curmudgeon”. It doesn’t profess to have all, if any of, the answers to these challenges, but to enable delegates to be better positioned when it comes to understanding how to adopt (or improve) Agile practices for embedded developments.
The day will offer practical ideas and solutions on Agile for embedded and includes presentations by guest speakers from the industry, as well as a limited number of presentations from some sponsors.
