ProductTank Heidelberg December 2023 event with Hayder Schneider

Back in October, we started exploring the topic of GenerativeAI and got a hands-on demonstration of its power in product management. We are happy to announce that in December, we will look at the topic from a different perspective.
Our next expert speaker, Hayder Schneider, will explore the vital role of product thinking in successfully leveraging data and AI technologies. Through his experiences and numerous discussions with leaders in this field, he has observed a prevalent underestimation of the importance of product thinking. Many still need to focus more on algorithms and technology, overlooking the strategic and human-centric aspects that product thinking brings to the table.
Prepare to be inspired, educated, and engaged as we unlock the secrets of product thinking and its role in AI innovation. Join us, and let's explore together!

The event is free; however, registration is required for organisational purposes. Refreshments will be provided.
This is an in-person event, and it will not be streamed online.
