Agile Business Conference 2027
The Agile Business Conference brings practitioners and business leaders together each year to share how they’re changing the way their organizations work – what’s working, what’s proving difficult and what others can learn from their experience.
The 2027 theme is “Business Agility, Now More Than Ever – in an AI-accelerated world”.

Reasons to attend
There’s no shortage of conferences exploring the latest trends. Most cost several hundred pounds, need a day out of the office, and leave you with a notebook of ideas you never quite get round to using.
Ours is different. It’s free, fully online and spread across two afternoons, so you can join without the travel or the price tag.
Here’s what makes it worth your time.
Learn how others put agility into practice
Go beyond the slides and hear from practitioners and business leaders who’ve put agile ways of working into practice.
They’ll share what they tried, where they struggled and what helped them make progress. No vendor pitching – just people talking about work they’ve actually done.
See your challenges from a new angle
What happened when people resisted the change, departments couldn’t agree or an approach didn’t work?
Hear how others worked through the challenges of becoming more agile, and see what their experience could help you tackle in your own organization.
Ask questions you can take back to work
Use the live Q&A to dig into the details, exchange perspectives and connect with people facing similar challenges.
How did they get leaders on board? Where did they start? How did they know things were improving? Take their answers back to your colleagues to help decide what to try next.
