Join us for an evening with Joe Justice, President at Scrum Inc., as we explore alternative ways of executing challenging med tech projects using agile methodologies.
We can manufacture medical devices better, cheaper, and faster than with traditional project management and development methods. For developing software the answer is Scrum, but this light Agile framework is a powerhouse in the manufacturing arena as well. Learn the best practices for rapid prototyping and full-scale manufacturing in hardware. Joe will share case studies from his experience on how to Scrum in manufacturing.

MPORTANT: Cambridge Innovation Center (CIC) is a secured facility, so you will need to check in at the security desk on the first floor. Please bring a photo ID. The CIC can be busy after work with events like these, so we suggest arriving early in case there is a line at the security desk. Your security check-in experience will be faster if your meetup.com account name matches the full name on your ID.
