The Conference

Two Days of Powerful Talks

18 May 2018

19 May 2018

Conferences are one of the best platforms, where like-minded people get together, some share their success stories and a few others transform them into real-life experiences. APGI's maiden conference in 2017 tasted its success just as sweet as sugar. We had 250+ participants with 20+ enthusiastic volunteers supporting us in making our conference a remarkable success.

So, with the same energy and the zeal to quench the thirst of many people, APGI comes again with a bang in 2018 with a two-day conference. At APGI, we believe in bringing understanding through experience. We understand that though perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection, we can catch excellence and we strive hard to exceed expectations every time. The APGI conference aims to bring about Agile awareness and bring concurring people together.

Explore, discuss and learn about the key variants of Agile from the experts and catch the Agile pioneers in action.
