Abstract: Abstract Agility is a lever to achieve the entrepreneurial, innovative culture which allows companies to build close relationships with customers and quickly adapt to their environments. In this light, this study aimed to assess virtual scaled agile transformation. Qualitative research situated in a large software company based on 16 semi-structured interviews, observations and artifacts analysis was carried out to evaluate the studied agile adoption. Findings uncovered the challenges, strengths, innovative aspects, and the effect of the transformation on the firm’s effectiveness. The study concludes with a set of recommendations for other organizations. The firm successfully utilized the full potential of the online environment, which shows that online interconnectedness provides a way to advance digitalization and the development of the whole digital ecosystem. The empirical evidence from this study demonstrates that it is possible to realize a scaled agile adoption solely remotely when the global pandemic does not allow for in-person meetings.
