DENVER, July 28, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Scrum Alliance, the largest, most established and influential professional membership organization and certifying body in the Agile community, announces its first ever Global Scrum Gathering in China later this year www.GlobalScrumGathering.hk. Hundreds of people from around the world will be attending this event in September in Shanghai, China. Chairman of the Board Harvey Wheaton and Scrum Alliance CEO Manny Gonzalez will also attend and speak to participants.
"As part of our mission to transform the world of work, we host several events around the world each year to bring Agile and Scrum communities together," said Scrum Alliance CEO Manny Gonzalez. "We have seen membership growing in China and considered hosting a Global Gathering there for the past couple years. With the increasing popularity of Scrum events globally, we decided this was the year to add a global gathering in China."
The purpose of Global Gatherings is to offer business leaders, managers, corporations and practitioners worldwide the opportunity to come together to share their passion and knowledge of Scrum and Agile practices. Attendees will hear presentations from experts in the field who will inspire them with stories of success, current implementation best practices, and creative applications of the Scrum framework.
"Participants get the chance to meet people from around the world who share a passion and drive to deliver better business results," Gonzalez said. "Attendees share experiences, gain new insights, and return home to their work teams energized and ready to reach the next level. It is a truly inspiring experience to be a part of."
Global Gatherings are historically held twice per year; once in the United States in the spring and once again in Europe in the fall. This year to continue to demonstrate Scrum Alliance's global impact, it is adding a third event in Asia. The location of these Global Gatherings changes each year to allow as many people as possible the chance to participate in and experience one of these motivating and exhilarating events.
