“Our 2010 Agile Comes to You seminar series was a huge success, so we’re going on the road again to provide developers with practical knowledge and an action plan for realizing the full potential of Agile development processes,” said Cliff Utstein, VP of Marketing at AccuRev. “We surveyed more than one thousand developers, testers and product managers during our 2010 tour and found that Agile adoption is growing, but many developers and organizations face obstacles to scaling Agile across the enterprise. Our seminar series helps developers prepare for and overcome these pain points, smoothing the way for scaling Agile and dramatically improving the efficiency of the software development process.”
In addition to Phoenix and Atlanta, “Agile Comes to You” will visit San Francisco and Seattle in March, Chicago, Toronto, and Dallas in April, London, Stockholm, Washington, D.C., and Philadelphia in May, and Boston in June.
