Update 2018-08-12: The Survey Results Are in

We asked 4,500 European subscribers to the Food for Agile Thought newsletter to participate in the Hands-on Agile 2019 Conference survey, and about 350 answered the call:

• 65 percent of the respondents voted for Berlin over London.
• The Hands-on Agile 2019 Conference would be 2-days conference on a Thursday & Friday. (Including a workshop track on Tuesday and Wednesday.)
• The most wanted topics are business agility, “scaling agile,” and coaching techniques including games.
• The price range will likely be between € 250 and € 400 per ticket.
• The majority of respondents preferred a hybrid event with a preselected speaker track as well as a Barcamp-like track.
• Respondents expressed their willingness to support the conference: from spreading the news to volunteering at the venue.

Next step: The next step is the identification of a suitable venue. Once that task is accomplished, we can start talking to sponsors. I will keep you posted via the newsletter.
