“As a community and as aspiring developers, we had the opportunity to participate as attendees at the event. We went to share, learn, and contribute to the Agile Colombia community so that we could later contribute value to the local community. We forged important bonds that will help us grow as an academic community and always contribute to any activity.”, The research group at the Faculty of Engineering stood out.
