The theme of XP 2024 was “Reflect, Adapt, Envision”

This year’s theme encapsulates our journey through the last 25 years and our vision for the future. It’s an invitation to engage, learn, and shape the future of Agile together.

At its inception 25 years ago, the XP conference focused solely on eXtreme Programming. It quickly widened its scope to include all modern Agile approaches and Agility’s developing aspects. XP draws people from around the globe, providing a diverse and inclusive environment for learning and inspiring conversations.

Agile 101 Project Management

Hosted in the picturesque town of Bolzano, Italy

For the first time in its long history, XP 2024 was held in Bolzano, Italy, a city in the South Tyrol province of north Italy, set in a valley amid hilly vineyards. It’s a gateway to the Dolomites mountain range in the Italian Alps. In the medieval city center, the South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology features the Neolithic mummy called Ötzi the Iceman. Nearby is the imposing 13th-century Mareccio Castle, and the Duomo di Bolzano Cathedral with its Romanesque and Gothic architecture.

Open Access Publication

All peer-reviewed academic research presented at the conference will be available on the website as an open access Springer publication. We believe that research is useful to practitioners and should be shared widely, not hidden behind a paywall. There will be two publications, one before and one after the conference, containing research papers and workshop papers.
