Thank you NY Product community for an amazing event!
Videos of the event will be posted soon. In the mean time, please join our MEETUP GROUP to be notified of future events!
Product leadership has come a long way in New York. This conference is designed to take it to the next level.
This year's theme - Product Strategy - takes the NY product community's biggest debate and surfaces it so we can learn together. We have world class speakers digging in to topics sourced from you, the product community.
NPS responses (thanks!) to prior conferences also surfaced a desire to get to know each other and get your hands dirty. So this year we are putting on a expert trainer-led workshop that we think you will get a ton of value from.
Our two prior conferences sold out, so this year we've moved to the beautiful Times Center to accommodate our growing community!

Evaluating a Company's Product Strategy During the Interview Process
