Speakers:
1. Lubo Drobny, Head of Engineering @ Slido
Topic: Long way from sli.do to slido.com (20 min)
Think twice when you are choosing an internet domain for your product. I will tell you our story as validation of that advice.
2. Matúš Burda, Senior Product Manager @ Kiwi.com
Topic: Catastrophic journey of new product vertical (20 min)
Not all great ideas translate into great products. In fact, some ideas turn out to be far from great and can even cause damage when pursued for a long time. In this talk, we’ll delve into a real-life example of such an idea—a visionary product designed to revolutionize the leisure travel market and establish a new business vertical for kiwi.com. Unfortunately, ending up in lots of wasted hopes, resources and opportunities. And few critical learnings.
3. Michal Humaj, Product Manager @ OAK’S LAB
Topic: How we oversimplified our product and lost our customer data (20 min)
Working as a product manager on a B2B project management tool used by 20k business customers is challenging not only because of the complexity of the product but also because of the processes that each customer has built in it, and every product change has to consider that. I will speak about the time when we wanted to simplify the UX and onboarding of our product. While doing that, we didn’t think about our existing customers, all impact it would have, and eventually even lost some customer data.
After the talks, you can look forward to free food (pizza & else) and drinks while you network with others and get to know the community better.
We are looking forward to seeing you there!
