- PORTLAND, Oregon, April 19, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Today Agile Alliance is pleased to announce the program for AGILE2017, the largest international gathering of Agilists. The conference is widely considered the premier global event for the advancement of Agile practices.

"We received nearly 1,550 submissions for 250 speaking slots this year," said Tricia Broderick, AGILE2017 conference chair. "The multitude of fantastic proposals made it quite difficult to narrow the selection. Our program is filled with compelling sessions by thought leaders in the Agile community that will deepen attendees' knowledge of Agile, generate transformative ideas and advance the use of cutting-edge Agile practices from the team to enterprise level."

Last year the conference drew nearly 2,500 Agilists from more than 40 countries who learned from and collaborated with recognized Agile experts, authors and innovators. AGILE2017, to be held August 7 – 11 in Orlando, Florida, is expected to draw a similar number of attendees. 

Agile Alliance organizes the annual North American Agile Conference, now in its sixteenth year. It attracts worldwide Agile practitioners, academia, business, and vendor-partner community members.
