Explanation

Multiple Scrum Teams working on the same product do not have to have the same Sprint start date. The Scrum Guide does not prescribe any synchronization of Sprints across multiple teams1.

This way, the teams can deliver a coherent and valuable product Increment every Sprint[3][3]. 1: The Scrum Guide, November 2020, p. 9 2: Managing Products with Agility, Scrum.org, accessed on December 16, 2023 [3][3]: Understanding and Applying the Scrum Framework, Scrum.org, accessed on December 16,
