EVENT DETAILS

New York's Finest Product Builders!

Join us for a very special ProductTank NYC event at Squarespace, where well learn from seasoned product leaders how to elevate mature products to the next level.

--
New York City is a cradle of great startups, & we celebrate product people & entrepreneurs who've built great products from the ground up.

However, what happens after the product becomes successful & starts to mature? As the product matures, its user acquisition rate starts to slow down & its market position is challenged by new market entrants.

ProductTank NYC & Squarespace are proud to host four amazing product leaders, who have succeeded in expanding their user segments while retaining their existing users. One of the speakers even introduced the modern product management practice & design thinking to large, traditional companies & helped them foster new product innovation.

Ladies & gentlemen, please meet our product leaders:
