Jira Day is back! Keynotes 2021

Updated on March 31st, 2021 by Tatiana Glazkova

Last year, we took off with Jira Day Remote Edition. Despite all the challenges, we had four days abounded with training sessions, absorbing expert talks, and 11 engaging AMA sessions. This year, we’ll be shooting for the stars again, as we want to ensure that the lively exchange of knowledge and ideas so typical of Deviniti continues to work well.

The remote broadcast highlight in May is Jira Day 2021! What can you expect? Three days filled with reports given by the experts working with the Atlassian Ecosystem products for years, as well as a unique space for knowledge and experience exchange. 

Jira Day – what is it all about?

We’ve launched Jira Day for the first time in 2013. The year that marked the end of the Mayan calendar – and a speculated Apocalypse – turned out to be the beginning of a unique event for the Atlassian community, and the largest Atlassian-related conference in Central Europe.

When we lift off with organizing Jira Day, the main idea was to create a space where all the Jira enthusiasts can meet, exchange experiences, come up with new ideas, and make new valuable contacts. 

Here are just a couple of topics that we’ve discussed during all the Jira Day editions:

  • changes in Atlassian products and how to improve our work processes by using them;
  • use cases of customizing Jira in companies of different sizes and profiles;
  • tactics that will enhance collaboration across and between teams;
  • scaling Atlassian solutions;
  • the possibilities behind customizing Jira Service Management (formerly: Jira Service Desk);
  • machine learning opportunities within Jira;
  • managing customer success across multiple distributed teams;
  • Jira Service Management, Confluence, Jira Software, plugins, and many more.

The goal that we all had in mind was not to organize another conference. We wanted it to be an event that would bring all the Atlassian Ecosystem enthusiasts together. We planned to create a space where we can share our discoveries, hold one-on-one sessions, listen to keynote speeches and smaller presentations. Participants’ opinions after consecutive editions of the event speak for themselves: attendees appreciate Jira Day for its unique atmosphere and the opportunity to spend time with other users of the Atlassian tools. 

The conference was amazing! It was very well organized and led. It was engaging, interesting and enjoyable – especially thanks to the sense of humor, light yet firm in its approach and great moderation! It was a good platform for networking, knowledge sharing and learning – The participant of Jira Day 2020 Remote Edition

Task yourself! What to expect?

As we all know, remote conferences and events will stay with us for some time. Last year’s experience taught us a lot and we’re certain that the online edition of Jira Day can be at least as much, as if not more, engaging and exciting for participants, as an on-site event. 

For the 9th time in its history and the 2nd in its remote edition, Jira Day is calling for participants in May. This year it’ll bring Atlassian Ecosystem speakers from San Francisco and its toolset power users and followers together from all over the world. The first conference day kicks off live with Piotr Dorosz, CEO at Deviniti, discussing the seismic shifts in how we work today. Whether you’re WFH or meeting IRL, this keynote will enable you to learn about ways to improve your work and wellbeing from Deviniti leadership. It wouldn’t be possible to distance ourselves from the pandemic situation, that’s why we’ll talk about the companies’ ability to adapt to changing times. How to speed up the decision-making process, extend enterprise agility, and what’s Atlassian’s role in helping companies achieve that.

Keynote talks delivered on Days 1 and 2 come from the recognized Atlassian thought leaders based in San Francisco, USA.

There will be also plenty of room for technical speeches during the event. A number of thematic blocks covering PMO, QA, Confluence, Security, Migrations, Integrations, Automation, ITSM, Reporting, Applications welcome you to presentations from invited experts.

The advanced Jira users will certainly learn something new, as they’ll have the chance to discover how to avoid common mistakes in extensive Jira configuration. On top of that, our speakers will share the secret of creating spotless workflows concepts in Jira to achieve process streamlining in self-service and automation in interfacing with manual processing tasks.

“Ask me anything” (AMA) sessions and live discussion panels are calling you to join and explore the other’s experience in Jira navigation and task management, search and filters, mobile issue tracking, EazyBI, and Tempo.

The breaks will keep you in gear as we’re getting ready with some dynamic funs to relax your body and mind at the same time. During the event, we’re planning to hold a charity campaign. The winners will receive real-time virtual training with Jira, an audit of an instance with a report, or a four-hour package of expert advice. All money from the competition will go to charity.
