July ProductTank

ProductTank July is all about making tradeoff decisions in product management. This time Marc Abraham (http://www.twitter.com/MAA1) has cooked up something slightly different: there will be two great speakers and a mock debate on making trade-offs by two other great presenters.

We are back in the heart of Shoreditch, at Central Foundation Boy's School on Cowper Street (https://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=Central+Foundation+Boys+School&hl=en&ll=51.525914,-0.086002&spn=0.007009,0.01929&client=firefox-a&fb=1&gl=uk&hq=Central+Foundation+Boys+School&hnear=0x47d8a00baf21de75:0x52963a5addd52a99,London&cid=0,0,12003387383963018746&t=m&z=16&iwloc=A). Right next to Old Street tube station.
