AGILE:Community
The Agile method has been developing for 15 years through communities that organize events from small one-hour meetings gathering some practitioners and beginners to large conferences with thousands of participants for one week, and holding more than 15 presentations in parallel.
The website of the Scrum Alliance Association, one of the most important association of the Agile community (400,000 members in more than 175 countries), includes more than 380 registered groups, out of which two thirds are in the US and in Europe, while less than 10 are in the Middle East.
Agile Lebanon:
Established in 2013, Agile Liban is a registered NGO at the Ministry of Interior.
