About Us
Product Management Festival
Product Management Festival (PMF) is an organization whose aim is to support product management (PM) as a profession. It contributes to the development of product managers and establishes their role in their organizations by offering them all the resources and tools to empower them to create products. Its mission is to amplify the impact of product management - not only on the products themselves, but also on their organizations, to help product managers be more successful, and to make a real difference.
PMF believes that supporting product managers in becoming masters in their “craft” will help ensure the creation of extraordinary products and even redefine the way we perceive these currently. It also hosts local events for the PM community and an annual 2-day conference that showcases the latest information and innovation in product management from leading experts from around the world. PMF is led by a steering board with representatives from organizations such as Google, Facebook, UBS, Zalando, BBC, IDEO, Blockchain, Pivotal Labs, Naspers, Yooture, and Oneview Healthcare.
