MobileMonday Estonia in partnership with Devtraining and with friends from Agile.ee and DevClub is pleased to invite you to an event on 6th of June codenamed "Mobile Development requires Agile approach?".

We will try to figure out if agile software development and mobile industry can walk the same walk. Agile development is gaining more popularity and ground all over the software development industry. Although, the approach has been around for over a decade, different agile software development methodologies are becoming more popular and applied in our fast-paced everyday life more and more.

MobileMonday Estonia is trying to look at Agile from a focused angle – we will try to understand if mobile software development is Agile-enabled by theory and also by best-practices.

Thanks to our partners at Devtraining the event will be opened by Mary Poppendieck to introduce Lean Software Development principles from the originator herself.
Mary will discuss how development teams can discover and build products that customers love. To confirm the workings of the theory we will also hear real-life examples from Estonian companies who have worked within the mobile industry.

Refreshments and venue are provided by our long-time partner Technopolis Ülemiste / Smart Business City. Event is held in English and registration is mandatory. Thank You!

For already registered participants please see the registration list.

We are very excited to see you on 6th of June!

You've been an amazing crowd and cheerful companion for our another great event on Monday 11th "Mobile Software Development - 3 years later". We would also like to thank Nokia and Tehnopolis Ülemiste for making all this happening.

The plan was to talk about the mobile software development progress and changes within last years. Hall was filled with around seventy (70!) mobile-interested people to check out the latest trends, platforms and discuss them with some refreshments. We hope you enjoyed the event too! We had some very good presenters and now the possibility to them public. If you missed the event, now you can check out the presentations. If you were on the event, thank you and have a great time recalling the topics. We will be happy to see you soon on our next events. So please, stay tuned on the website or give us your email using our Sign-Up and Feedback form so that we can add you to our event invitation mailing lists. Also check out our event-calendar on the right side on the main page. See you at MoMo! We'll bring you the slides of the presentations and the photos below.

We are back from St. Petersburg and we immediately carry on with the next event: "Mobile Software Development - 3 years later" preceded by the "Nokia Qt Quick training in Tallinn" on the same day. Venue as usual: Technopolis, Ülemiste City.

The idea is simple – exactly three years ago there was a MoMo event in Estonia focusing on mobile software development: "Software Development for Mobile Phones: Platforms, Users, and Managing Complexity."

Those of you who have been longer with us may remember the event in the sunny Tartu focusing on J2ME, the fuzz about Flash development, and the moaning about the fragmentation of mobile platforms.

This time we'll look back on these three years, we'll see what's happening today and for just the fun try to predict what happens during the next three years. Maybe we can then see if our predictions were correct :)

The program of the event will feature introduction with the look-back, short presentations about currently relevant development platforms and an open panel discussion looking forward in the mobile development landscape.
