Summer is officially here, and for our June meetup, we’re heading to a familiar spot with a new name. We'll be at the **Old Street Tavern** (which you might remember as Serata Hall from our past events). We've got the entire upstairs space reserved just for us, so there will be plenty of room to grab a drink, catch up with everyone, and talk product away from the main bar crowd. It's the perfect setup to kick off the summer networking. **About Product Pints:** Forget the stuffy presentations – Product Pints is all about **meaningful connections and stimulating conversations** for product people. Our diverse crowd includes everyone from aspiring product managers to CPOs, entrepreneurs, developers, designers, and tech enthusiasts. Come along to get advice on a tricky problem, discover what other PMs are up to, or simply share a beer with your product peers. It's the perfect opportunity to **iterate on your network** and **launch some great conversations**! **If your company might be interested in sponsoring future events in 2025, please reach out to us at hello@productpints.com - thank you!**
