This field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.

Unlocking engineering productivity means unlocking revenue, growth, and time to focus on the work that matters. 

But what if everything we previously thought about unlocking higher velocity by moving fast and accumulating technical debt was wrong? Organizations that are built for speed are also some of the most secure, consistent, and culturally aligned. So what can we learn from their ways of working?

In this panel discussion we’ll dive into the habits that separate high velocity engineering organizations from the rest, from extensive automation to eliminating developer friction and how to track the outcomes that drive delivery. We’ll bust common myths around what it takes to ship at breakneck speed, and share tips on how to boost velocity without sacrificing sanity.
