Panel: Trimming the Product Fat 🔪

Join us on Aug 13th for a panel with experienced product leaders in the KW region.

Where: Catalyst Commons.
Seats are limited - the event is restricted to folks who RSVP'd.

• Please do your best to be here before 5:30 pm, given that access to the building will be restricted shortly after that time.
• When entering the building, use the access for Catalyst Commons.

You built a product and took it to market.
Over time, as you iterated, it gained some “product fat”:

• Features have low adoption and/or are hard to maintain.
• The story has become harder: the “who” you serve is unclear.

In this panel, we’ll hear from local product leaders how they trimmed “product fat”:

• What the product was + their role.
• What “product fat” they uncovered.
• How they influenced their leadership team to cut it. (Features they killed? Positioning/strategy they revamped?)
• What they learned.

Moderator: Kanwar Anand, Director of Product Strategy & Innovation at Sunlife
