Meet Us in Manhattan on May 18th
Don't miss out on the finale of K15t's whirlwind USA speaking tour – join us at Medidata HQ on May 18th for our first-ever event in New York City. Two unique talks with Confluence and JIRA content are on the menu, as well as tasty NYC pizza and refreshing beverages.

How Atlassian Does Docs
Product documentation and technical content management are challenges nearly all organizations face. And as products and services change and grow, old-school models for creating and publishing supporting content can struggle to scale.
Atlassian's docs teams keep pace by authoring in Confluence and using Scroll Add-ons to manage and publish their content. Learn how they do it from beginning to end, and see how the tools you're already using can be extended to give your docs process the speed and agility it deserves.
Bridging the Gap: Collaboration With Backbone Issue Sync for JIRA
Backbone – Issue Sync synchronizes issues across JIRA projects and JIRA instances. It enables teams, partners, and businesses to work collaboratively on issues and gives full control over which issues should be synched and to what extent. In this talk we will discuss various approaches to team collaboration in JIRA, focusing on the new possibilities opened up by Backbone. Learn how to share issues and exchange issue information across organization and company boundaries, and work with JIRA in a whole new way.
