Product Council Events are broken into two acts:
Act I: For the first act, we introduce a product owner or manager who would like feedback from our Product Council about a specific product challenge. Our Product Council consists of three experienced product owners who serve as an anchor for the ensuing conversations.
This month's challenge presenter is Horti, a plant subscription service that provides members with all the tools, tips, & hardy plants urban dwellers need to thrive.

Act II: The second act introduces a second business whos product owner is given an opportunity to showcase a particular product or feature they feel their team has executed particularly well or solved in a unique way. In this scenario, the audience is provided with valuable product learnings through the experience of another product owner.
This month's solutions presenter is also our event parter, Asana. Asana is the work management service that empowers teams to track their work & produce great results.
