Agile on the Bench is a friendly, low-fi, lunchtime, outdoor, agile meetup. Expect short fun talks about all things agile, people, teams, users and getting things done… on a bench. Being outside means no tech, there are no laptops or projectors, just the speakers, the participants and lots of fantastic ideas.

Agile on the Bench is a community event run by agile people for agile people (and passing joggers).
