Atlassian for Non-IT environments presented by Fabio Genovese, Atlassian Software Architect
Atlassian products are fantastic and help us manage a project and develop every kind of software. But this is the first step. Several non-IT companies use Atlassian products in everyday situations and they are perfect. During my chat, I will describe how to use the Atlassian Suite like an automotive assembly line.

Free Jira Cloud Automation by John Funk, Agile Tools Administrator, Ramsey Solutions
Automation for Jira is now included for Free in Jira Cloud. Lots of folks are beginning to venture into that. We use it quite heavily in our organization. So maybe taking some of the mystics out of beginning to use Automation - it's much easier than you think! Where to go for help and guidance. How powerful is it really? Quarterly product team webinars, etc.

Context Switching: solving the hidden and huge productivity cost by Nicholas Cron, CEO, Nextup.ai & Evn Tomeny, Manager of Enterprise Collaboration, iRobot
According to Slack's The State of Work research, 64% of aligned workers report spending 30 minutes or more each day simply switching between apps. This presentation discusses solutions to this hidden and huge productivity vampire.

Migrating to the Atlassian Cloud by Michael Brown, Principal Consultant, Ascend Integrated
With more organizations looking to minimize server maintenance, the Atlassian Cloud has become a viable option for organizations becoming increasingly reliant on the Atlassian Tool Suite. While the cloud exists as an option, it is important to consider the migration path to the cloud, the benefits of the cloud, and challenges organizations face when migrating to the cloud. The Atlassian Cloud provides an excellent option for many companies, but is it right for your organization?

Supercharge Jira BPM with Smart Issue Templates, Jim Hannon, Agile Transformation Architect 

In the current environment, it is essential to gain any efficiencies in your operations. Smart Issues Template for Jira from AppsDelivered fills a needed hole in the Jira marketplace. Smart Issue Templates can be used to save considerable time in repetitive tasks and can allow your organization to run process templates in one click that requires multiple steps using three Jira Issue Type levels structures like Epic -> Issue Type (Story, Task, Bug, etc), and Subtask. During my talk, I will show how I use Smart Issue Templates for Jira to manage my user group processes that include many related tasks.
