I applied for the Young & New Talents format because I genuinely enjoy presenting and sharing my experiences with others. At the same time, I had never spoken at a conference before, and this format offered the perfect opportunity to take that next step and challenge myself in a supportive environment.
Erster Konferenzauftritt – mit Unterstützung durch Mentoren
Ich habe mich für das Young & New Talents Format beworben, weil ich sehr gerne präsentiere und meine Erfahrungen mit anderen teilen möchte. Gleichzeitig hatte ich zuvor noch nie auf einer Konferenz gesprochen – das Format war für mich der ideale Rahmen, um diesen nächsten Schritt zu machen.
My mentors supported me by helping refine my concept and develop my presentation. Together we worked on presentation techniques and I received honest feedback on how the talk came across overall.
This combination of content refinement, practical training, and constructive feedback gave me a lot of confidence for my presentation.
Participating in Agile Tour Vienna had a noticeable impact on my personal and professional development. Preparing for the talk and presenting it on stage helped me become more confident when speaking in front of others — both in terms of content and presence.
That confidence now benefits me not only in my professional life but also in everyday communication.
What I appreciated most about Agile Tour Vienna was how well organized the event was and how supportive and welcoming the community felt. The other speakers were incredibly encouraging — it never felt competitive, but rather like a shared experience.
Combined with an inspiring program and a great location, it made the entire event truly memorable.

The Young & New Talent Format is a great opportunity to meet new speakers – people who might just need that final nudge to take the stage for their first talk. For some, the Agile Tour Vienna was the starting point for an amazing "conference career" and sometimes even the beginning of long-lasting friendships.
As a mentor, I want to share my experience: helping structure messages clearly, building confidence in speaking freely and, most importantly, conveying the joy I feel when I'm on stage.
