2025 Agile Open Unconference

Are you looking for a place to share your knowledge and get new inspiration for Agile ways of working?
Are you looking to co-create fresh insights with fellow professionals and friends old & new?

Come to Weesp, Friday September 12th! 

Trailblazers is organising a one-day Open Space conference where all Agile subjects are welcome (we mean that in the greatest sense possible)!

At Trailblazers we love people, love sharing knowledge and love the concept of Open Space. So it was just a matter of time before we organised one. We found our partners in Natalia Gulchevskaya, Richard Metcalf and Josje van de Kerkhof.

The Theme of this year's Agile Open is: Organizing for an Unpredictable Future!

Open space is a framework to let people self-organise and quickly create a diverse and engaging program for the conference. The process is more or less the following:

1. Everybody who has an idea to share, or question to ask, writes it on a big post-it and presents it to other attendees. Choose a place and time-slot to “book” it.
   NB: If the weather is good enough, we can have an extra place outside.
2. Attendees are free to choose any slot and stay there for the whole hour or change places every now and then.
3. Around noon we have lunch. We conclude the day with a retrospective and drinks.

There will be experienced facilitators present that will enable everyone to make the most of the day.

And what would an Agile Open be without a pre-conference game night? So we're offering that as well!
Our office will be open on Thursday September 11 from 5pm for all participants that would like to get together, have dinner and play some games the night before.

Your investment: one Friday, from 9am to 5pm (Thursday evening optional), and €35*. 

Your return: new energy and inspiration for your job, new and renewed acquaintances and friends, good lunch and refreshments.

Cancelation: If you cancel your ticket before Saturday September 5th 2025, you can get a full refund. To cancel your ticket, send an e-mail to agileopen@trailblazers.nl with your cancelation request.

*) Due to inflation and investements into acoustic improvements at the location, we're forced to raise the ticketprice a little compared to last year.
