Sprint Review is an informal meeting held at the end of the Sprint where the increment is presented to promote the collaboration and obtain the customer's feedback on the developed product. It is mainly conducted to 'Inspect' the Increment and 'Adapt' the Product Backlog if required.

A new sprint begins as soon as the current sprint ends. Every sprint should be able to produce something immediately usable.
