Venue

We’ll gather at the facilities of the Orthodox Academy of Crete Conference Centre, Kolymvari Crete.   How to get there: Coming soon… If you’re staying further out, other participants and organizers are always willing to give you a ride to the venue, in the morning, and back. Really… it’s part of the #AgileCrete spirit! Relax! Please […]

Schedule

You might have heard that in an unconference, there is no schedule. And that is true, in the sense that there’s no conventional schedule, as you would expect in traditional conferences, with pre-arranged talks and tracks and speakers. In an open space unconference, everyone is (potentially) a speaker! However, as with any sizeable group of people, […]

Venue 2018

We’ll gather at the facilities of the Ibis Styles Hotel, Heraklion Crete.   How to get there: This year’s venue is located right in the city center, so if you’re staying in town, it should only be a few minutes walk. By “a few minutes” we mean less than 10. If google advises you it’s a […]

AgileCrete Meets SoCraTes

It has been running in Crete since 2014, and in this time, we have discussed, argued and contested many many topics that touch on software development, product management, methodologies, […]

2017 – Accommodation

Heraklion offers plenty of nice hotels, BnB, and many more rooms. If you choose an accommodation in or close to the city center, you’ll have no trouble in getting to the venue in short time. By the way: #AgileCrete participants traditionally share cars, enjoy giving others a ride to the venue and are a lovely […]

2017 – The Venue

We’ll gather at the facilities of the Arina Beach Resort (formerly called “Arina Sand Resort”), Heraklion.       Please note: Since 2016, we’re no longer offering #AgileCrete tickets that include accommodation at the venue. By that time, we had learned that managing and resolving accommodation issues is nothing we’d like to specialize on. We […]

2017 – Crete? Heraklion?

Some basic facts Wikipedia says: Crete (Greek: Κρήτη Kríti; [kriti]) is the largest and most populous (620.000) of the Greek islands, the fifth-largest island in the Mediterranean Sea. Crete straddles two climatic zones, the Mediterranean and the North African, mainly falling within the former. As such, the climate in Crete is primarily temperate. During the Cretan summer, average temperatures reach the high 20s-low […]

2017 – Who should come to AgileCrete?

The 2017 call was: You’re invited! #AgileCrete is an Open Space UNconference that connects agile software development professionals from all over the world. It’s the playground where coaches and development team members gather to exchange and challenge ideas about all things agile. We deeply believe that it’s worth to gather in a place that inspires people and opens […]
