Summary

TokyoDev Talks Vol. 11 brings together software developers in Japan for two presentations and open networking at Tokyo Innovation Base. Attendance is limited to software developers and adjacent roles such as Product Managers, UI/UX Designers, Security Engineers, and QA Engineers. Rogerio Taques (Wovn Technologies) shares how WOVN moved from textbook Scrum to Large Scale Scrum (LeSS), covering what actually changes when multiple teams work on the same product and the common pitfalls of scaling Agile. Chris Salzberg (Shopify) walks through opening Solenoid, a cafe he runs in Hakodate as a side project alongside his software engineering job, including renovation, licenses, inventory, and the emotional reality of turning a developer dream into a real business. Doors open at 18:30 with drinks and a light meal. Talks start at 19:00, followed by open networking until 20:45. Note that TiB requires a separate free registration to enter the venue.
