IMPORTANT: to participate in the event, please register on Lu.ma – https://luma.com/83i9qgsy
Hosted by Projector Global Community, Le Comptoir Avalon - Paris and supported by AI Collective Paris, this session explores how AI is reshaping the day-to-day reality of Product Managers and Designers—and what this means for roles, ownership, and collaboration inside modern product teams.
Who owns discovery when AI can generate insights?
Who defines the solution when design tools can prototype instantly?
What even distinguishes product thinking from design thinking anymore?
You’ll hear from:
- **Vaska Vlahova**, Staff Product Designer at Qonto
- **Florian Herlicq**, Lead Product Manager at Orus
- **Justine Potin**, Product Manager at Finary
Moderated by:
- **Kate Mas,** Career Strategist at messy careers (ex-Qonto, ex-Preply) — guiding the discussion on blurred boundaries and future-ready skills in product and design
This isn’t a “Product Manager vs Designer” debate. It’s a conversation about what happens when traditional role boundaries stop making sense.
What we’ll explore:
- Where Product Manager and Design responsibilities are already merging
- How AI is changing product discovery, decision-making, and execution
- The risks of blurred ownership (and how to avoid them)
- What skills will actually matter going forward
- How to operate effectively in a world where roles are less defined
Expect a candid, practical discussion—less theory, more real-world shifts you’re likely already feeling.
Come if you’re a Product Manager, Designer, or product leader trying to make sense of your role in this transition—and what to do about it.
A friendly note: Guests are encouraged to buy a drink to support our hosts Le Comptoir Avalon.
