ProductTank Tallinn: What Claude Actually Changes in Product Work
***\*\*\*\*Please note this is an offline event with limited space. RSVP only if you will be able to attend in person.\*\*\*\****
**Date & Time:** June 4\, 2026 \| Doors open at 18:00
**Location:** Bondora, Tallinn Park Tondi Business Center
Join ProductTank Tallinn and [Bondora](https://www.linkedin.com/company/bondora-capital/posts/?feedView=all) for a practical after-work evening exploring how Claude AI is genuinely changing the way product managers work. Not another AI hype talk — this one is grounded in real workflows, honest trade-offs, and the kind of hands-on experience that actually moves the needle in a PM’s week.
Two practitioners will share what they’ve learned from integrating Claude into their day-to-day: where it saves meaningful time, where it still falls short, and why discovery, customer intuition, and context remain firmly in human hands. Whether you’re just getting started with AI tools or already deep in prompt engineering, there’s something here for every experience level.
**Speakers:**
* [Almonzer Eskandar](https://www.linkedin.com/in/almonzereskandar/) — Founder at [Najed AI](https://najed.ai/) and Senior AI PM at [Manychat](https://manychat.com/)

The Founders Room
Your next breakthrough might already be in the room.
The Founders Room is a curated, high-value event by **FalAgency** where founders don't just listen they participate. Everyone brings something. Everyone leaves with something.
**Here's what goes down:**
* **Peer hot seats** \- put your business\, product\, or online presence in front of the room and get raw\, honest feedback from fellow founders who actually get it
* **Live online presence audit** \- FalAgency breaks down how your business shows up digitally and what needs to change
* **Growth insights from FalAgency** \- practical tips on building and promoting your business online
* **Open networking** \- real conversations with founders who are building in the same world you are
This isn't a conference. There's no stage and no audience. Everyone in the room has a voice, and that's what makes it valuable
Baltic Connect - Tallinn - June 2026
🔹 **AWS Baltic Connect - Everything You Wanted to Know About the Cloud**
*By the Community, For the Community*
Business leaders and IT professionals across the Baltics face the same challenge: how to set up and evolve IT infrastructure to meet growing business demands while keeping pace with the rapid shifts in technology.
On-premise setups give control, cloud provides flexibility and rapid scaling, and multicloud combines the best of both worlds - resilience, choice, and agility.
**The key question is** when to stay on your own servers, when to move to the cloud, when to embrace multicloud strategies, how to prepare for innovations like quantum computing and how to balance technical innovation with economic realities.
At **AWS Baltic Connect**, we’ll uncover strategies, tools, and real-world case studies to help you navigate cloud adoption without unnecessary risk or compromise.
No theory in the clouds ☁️ - only practical insights from companies and tech leaders across the region.

Love languages? 👅 Want to practice speaking? Come to our meetup!
*How does it work? Simple!*
👉 Make a name tag with your name and languages that you speak/learn!
👉 Look for someone who has a language you want to practice - and strike a conversation!
*Important:*
* **Be comfortable to "eavesdrop"** **on a conversation** in a fascinating language you are not ready to speak yet - "I just want to listen" is a thing! ☝😎
* If someone joins you with this intention - **don't switch to English** (as you normally would, because you don't want to exclude your friend from a conversation!) - but in this setting - **keep talking!** You are giving others an opportunity to listen! 😁👂
Well, this is it... we are looking forward to seeing you on Friday! Let's discover unexpected language matches together! 🤩

Stop Guessing: A Product Person's Guide to AI Adoption
## 🤝 Host Information
A co-hosted event by ProductTank Columbus & Women in Product Columbus
💡 About the Workshop
AI adoption is stalling across organizations — not because of a lack of motivation or tools, but because it's fundamentally a behavior design challenge.
This hands-on workshop applies proven Behavior Design models and methods to help you move from a vague organizational wish to boost AI adoption to 3-5 concrete, testable interventions you can act on starting tomorrow.
Whether you're a product manager, on a product team, or just someone trying to get AI to actually stick at work, you'll leave with a clear picture of what's worth focusing on, what to ignore, and how to drive real, sustained adoption — no guesswork required.
🛠️ What to Bring
Laptop: Fully charged and ready to go.
AI Assistant: Have your favorite AI assistant pulled up. (Dom will be using Claude, but feel free to use whichever assistant you prefer!)
🍕 Logistics & Perks
Food & Drink: Pizza and drinks provided!
Parking: Plenty of free spaces available on-site.

Recruiting Virtual Mental Health Group Leaders!
We are recruiting new group leaders for virtual men's groups! Our primary groups are outdoor movement groups, but we are launching virtual groups for the state of Ohio and beyond and the groups will move outside in the spring, creating room for men's groups, women's groups and coed groups all over the country.
Read below to learn about our groups and click the links at the bottom to apply.
### **What is an Outdoor Empowerment Group?**
Our Outdoor Movement & Community Empowerment Groups are simple, guided experiences designed to help people reconnect with nature, themselves, and others. We combine some form of movement (hike, walk, run, bike, yoga, workout) and meaningful conversation within a simple community circle to create a space where individuals can support each other while prioritizing mental and physical well-being.
Whether you’re seeking stress relief, personal growth, or community, our groups offer everyone a unique and welcoming environment.
## **Why Join?**
* **Improve Mental & Physical Well-Being** – Movement, nature, and supportive conversations reduce stress and promote balance.
* **Feel Less Alone** – Build genuine connections with like-minded people in a safe, welcoming space.
* **Gain Clarity & Perspective** – Step outside daily routines and into a space designed for personal growth and reflection.
## **The Ideal Group Leader**
The ideal group leader
* Has a born-in passion for mental health, movement, connecting with nature and building community.
* Has 5 extra hours per week to dedicate to a meaningful cause for at least one year. Yes, you can leave any organization at any time and we can also ask you to leave, but we are building with legacy in mind and we need people who can commit and be ALL IN on this mission to build with us.
* Is independently financially stable with the ability to volunteer with no expectation of pay. This is a deeply beautiful journey of service that all participants commit to at Speak Your Mind.
* An ability to manage groups with high emotional intelligence and desire for human connection.
* An ability to self-motivate and market/promote their group on Facebook and other social platforms.
* Nature informed therapy or clinical therapists/psychologists a plus.
## **Our Impact**

Since launching, we have helped thousands find support, connection, and healing through our Outdoor Movement Groups. 100% of participants surveyed have reported:
* A noticeable improvement in mental clarity and emotional well-being.
* An increase in social connection and a sense of belonging.
* Said they would return again.
We believe mental health should be accessible, community-driven, and rooted in nature. Join us and take the first step toward a more connected, grounded, and supported version of yourself.
### **Why Our Groups are Donation-Based**
Our Outdoor Movement Groups are made possible through a donation-based model. This approach allows us to keep our events accessible to everyone, regardless of financial circumstances, while also ensuring that we can continue expanding our reach. It’s a great way to pay it forward and support the growth of this beautiful mission!
Every contribution helps us:
* **Cover Essential Costs** – Donations allow us to pay essential legal, marketing, insurance, and admin costs as well as nourish the important people who run the organization.
* **Grow Our Mission** – With your support, we can bring these healing experiences to thousands more people in the future and execute our long term plan to expand across the USA, affecting up to 500,000 people per year.
By choosing to contribute, you’re not just leading an event—you’re helping build a mental health movement that supports long-term well-being and connection for all during a severe mental health epidemic.

Data & Analytics Wednesday - Finding Product Insights
**The Behavior Gap: Where Products Win or Lose**
Teams today have more data than ever, and yet many still struggle to understand why customers adopt, engage with, or abandon their products. Teams sprint, ship faster, and chase more signals… all while metrics stall and confidence drops. The missing piece isn’t more data. It’s often the behavioral insight between the metrics, explaining why the numbers move in the first place. Dashboards can tell you what customers did, but understanding why they did it (and how to influence what they do next) requires a deeper blend of insights. This session is about closing that gap.
Drawing from real-world experience designing and scaling products as [ZoCo Design](https://zocodesign.com/)’s CEO, [Lacey](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) will share how to cut through the noise and identify the insights that actually change behavior—moving people, and moving metrics. You’ll learn:
* Why understanding customer behavior is a quant and qual challenge
* How to spot the signals that actually predict behavior change
* Where AI accelerates insight, and where it creates distraction
* How to get meaningfully closer to customers, without adding more tools
This talk reframes how to evaluate performance and identify what levers actually improve it, helping your team to make smarter bets with greater confidence. Every meaningful outcome is driven by behavior change. And when you know how to design for behavior, you stop guessing, and start building things that work.
**About Our Speaker**
[Lacey Picazo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) is the Founder and CEO of ZoCo, a healthcare product studio that turns complex, high-stakes ideas into products that drive real-world adoption. She partners with healthcare organizations to uncover critical care delivery insights, focus product strategy through behavior design, and build solutions that patients and providers actually use.
