Agile Lean Europe 2026
Datum: 2026-08-26 β 2026-08-28
Ort: Keizersberg Leuven, 3000 Leuven, Belgium
Since 2011, the ALE conference has moved across Europe, from one city to the other, with only one tagline: "We share because we care".
People are at the heart of this conference. A place where, year after year, more than 200 people gather from all over the continent to learn with, and from each other. This is a conference created by the participants. Everyone can be a speaker.
