FAQ

The COVID-19 outbreak has impacted individuals, families, and communities across the globe, and the health of Summit attendees is our primary concern. Given recommendations from the World Health Organization (WHO), Scaled Agile decided to host the Summit virtually instead of in person.

We’re passionate about bringing together our community to connect, share, and learn, and our community members have repeatedly told us how much they gain from the Summit. So while this year’s European SAFe Summit will look and feel different, we’ve worked hard to design a virtual, interactive experience that you’ll find valuable.

No: you don’t need to re-register for the virtual Summit. If you were already registered, your registration for the original Summit has been transferred over. Price adjustments will be taken into consideration and we will credit or refund you any differences.

The Summit still focuses on European keynotes, technical sessions, customer stories, exhibits, and more, and we expect the majority of attendees to be from European countries. The virtual Summit takes place in the Central European timezone.

Registration is open for the European SAFe Summit. Attendees who were already registered do not need to re-register.

To exhibit in the Virtual Exhibit Hall, please contact Karen Lewison or your Partner Development Manager for more information.

In moving the Summit from an in-person to a virtual event we have lowered the price. Please see our pricing page for details.

Yes, the SAFe summit has a code of conduct.

We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience the cancellation of the in-person European SAFe Summit in The Hague may have caused. However, as always, all attendees are solely responsible for their travel arrangements to and from the event. Scaled Agile cannot refund the costs of airline fees. 

We encourage you to reach out to your airline directly to request a refund, credit, or waiver for your flight. Please reference this article around exceptions airlines are currently providing.

Due to the current state of affairs, Scaled Agile will not be rescheduling an in-person 2020 European SAFe Summit. At this time, we are still on track to host our Global SAFe Summit in late September in Denver, Colorado, and welcome our European community to attend. To learn more about the Global SAFe Summit, please visit our website.

As SAFe Summit attendees get the flexibility to attend those sessions that they find most valuable, attendees will need to self-report their PDUs for the event. To do so, please visit the PMI CCRS at https://ccrs.pmi.org/claim and enter PDUs for an event/conference.

We are planning to offer nearly all the content from the 2020 European SAFe Summit at the virtual event. More details on the agenda, format, and engagement opportunities are coming soon. Register today to stay current on all virtual Summit news.

In order to experience the exclusive keynotes, interactivity with coaches and experts, and live and on-demand sessions, you must be registered for the virtual conference. We will not allow access to content or engagement with other attendees to anyone who has not registered for the event. You may also choose, with your registration, whether you want to be able to access the Summit content for two weeks or up to three months after the event. Learn more on our pricing page.

Yes, the SAFe Expert Coaching Station (formerly known as the SPCT Coaching Station) will be available during the virtual Summit. Click here for details.

Since Scaled Agile made the decision to cancel the in-person event this year and host a virtual instead, we notified all confirmed speakers detailing our next steps. We ask for your patience while we work on updating our agenda. If you have any questions, please reach out to our speaker manager.

For the majority of the Summit there will be no special requirements to access the content. However, we recommend that you update your web browsers to the latest version.

The SAFe Expert Coaching Station will use Zoom meetings, so you may want to download the Zoom app and test your browser, audio, and microphone settings. Over the coming months, our team will provide updates and information to set you up for a great experience.
