You always wanted to know what #NoEstimates is about? Are you asked when a set of backlog items will be done but don’t have an estimate (yet) on these items? Don’t want to spend much valuable time on estimating items far in the future?

Then this meetup is for you! Experience what probabilistic forecasting is and how it helps do accurate forecasting based on your own team data. Examples are given from real-life scrum teams. You will leave with a practical tool that you can start using the next day in addition to the tools you are already using.
