Backlog World 2026

⚠️ A ticket for the main "Backlog World 2026" event is required to participate in this workshop. Event Overview: Opportunities to openly discuss project management are surprisingly rare. At this conference bringing together people from various professions, join a casual, World Cafe-style session to freely share your daily challenges, creative solutions, and insights. The World Cafe is a discussion method where participants engage in multiple rounds of relaxed conversations in small groups, similar to a café setting. The goal isn’t to reach a conclusion, and no prior preparation or specialized knowledge is needed. By frequently rotating groups, you’ll gain new perspectives and ideas. Groups will brainstorm and write ideas on large sheets of paper, adding comments or drawings as the conversation develops. The specific discussion topics will be announced at the event. You're welcome to join without bringing anything. Afterwards, you may find yourself thinking, "I learned how project management works at other companies," "I'm not alone in my challenges," or "I found ideas I want to discuss with my team." Recommended for: - Those who face challenges or uncertainties in project management - Anyone interested in learning how other teams or companies operate - Those seeking solutions for using Backlog more effectively - People who prefer interactive discussions over lectures - Backlog users Anyone involved in projects is welcome, including first-time attendees.
