In The Brain of Allan Kelly, Agile Cornwall case study: How the EU is helps Cornish companies get Agile November 9, 2011
London, England
Allan Kelly -- author of the book “Changing Software Development: Learning to become Agile” -- looks at a case study from Agile Cornwall.
Software companies exist everywhere - even in remote regions like South West England. Since 2010 software developers in Cornwall have benefited from an European Union supported Agile adoption programme. Companies producing medical devices, e-commerce solutions, video streaming systems and bespoke embedded software - to name a few - have been helped to adopt Agile development.
This case study will look at how the programme came to be, what the companies did to get Agile and the lessons have been learned from introducing Agile to more than 10 companies. Finally we will discuss how the programme could be a model for future Government support to the software industry.
