AgileTDUSA & COVID-19

Due to the current COVID-19 pandemic, we have made the tough but necessary decision to postpone the Agile Testing Days USA conference, set for June 21- 25, 2020 to June 20 - 24, 2021.

Nothing is more important than the health and well-being of our customers, sponsors, speakers, employees and of course everyone’s families. We have been closely watching the COVID-19 situation and updates from the WHO. The present status and predictions for the months to come leave no doubt to our decision.

All we can do right now is to stay healthy, protect our loved ones and assist people that need our help the most. We urge everyone to please stay calm and behave in the recommended manner as advised by the health authorities. Do not take any risks and stay home! For additional guidance or questions, please see the WHO's Q&A on coronavirus.

Please note, that we will not reformat AgileTD USA to a virtual conference. However, there are several remote sessions in the making: free live webinars, virtual social events, informal chat channels and more. The actual AgileTD USA conference experience cannot fully be conveyed, but we would like to encourage the community to stay connected through our virtual sessions. Keep an eye out for announcements on our news page, social channels, or subscribe to the newsletter.

The program of 2020 shall be the program in 2021. All keynote and tutorial speakers and most session, workshop, and social event speakers already confirmed to join us for the postponed event in June 2021. This means you can get acquainted with the 5-day program well ahead of time. Of course, any emerging trends or tools will be taken into account, and sessions will be updated accordingly were suitable.

For AgileTD USA 2021, we will take all the possible steps to have a safe and healthy environment for all of us on site (hand sanitizers, tissues, bins, regularly cleaning down all high contact surfaces etc.). We closely collaborate with the venue and will check the situation in the area ahead of time for AgileTD USA 2021. Any form of recommended preventative actions will be taken!

On a last note, the whole Agile Testing Days USA team would like to thank you for your understanding and support in these tough times. Please stay safe and take care, until we meet again!

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to get in touch.

We look forward to welcoming you to AgileTD USA in Chicago next year!
