***\*\*\*\*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/) * [Anna-Liisa Reinson](https://www.linkedin.com/in/alreinson/) — Founder at [Produktize](https://www.linkedin.com/company/produktize/posts/?feedView=all) and Visiting CPO at [Webware](https://www.linkedin.com/company/webwarewd/) **Agenda:** * 18:00 - Door opens, networking * 18:40 - Opening words * 18:45 - Almonzer Eskandar * 19:30 - Anna-Liisa Reinson * 20:00 - Networking * 21:00 - Closing **Registration details:** * Please note this is an offline event with limited space.

🔹 **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.

## 🤝 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. ###

Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you knew Del Close on a personal level, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup** for some fun and games! The idea behind improv is to create entire scenes from scratch based on a suggestion from the audience. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway*, *ComedySportz*, or *Wild 'n Out*; it could also be done to tell stories, like *Middleditch and Schwartz*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and free!) weekly comedy event, brings the games (and occasionally different forms) for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Not only is it a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and make friendships that'll last a lifetime! Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "Yes, And" that you'll have fun!

I have been studying the question of "self" online with Prof. Ellie Anderson and so I thought a prompt on the "self" might be interesting. Full confession: I had Claude create this prompt and I like it, so here goes: Imagine a thought experiment that merges two classic puzzles: > You undergo a procedure, performed neuron by neuron, in which every biological component of your brain is replaced with a functionally identical synthetic substitute. At each step, your behavior, memories, and personality remain unchanged. When the last neuron is swapped, is the consciousness experiencing the world still you? And — more pressingly — was there ever a continuous "you" to begin with? ### Questions to Wrestle With * If consciousness is purely physical, does the *gradual* nature of the replacement matter, or is it equivalent to being destroyed and rebuilt? * Could there be a "self" without continuity of experience — even moment to moment, while you sleep? On a more practical level, consider the simpler case first: **hemispherectomy** patients — people who have had an entire cerebral hemisphere surgically removed — often retain a strong sense of personal identity and continuity. This suggests "you" are not rigidly tied to specific physical material. But does that vindicate the synthetic neuron case, or merely show that identity is more *flexible* than we thought — not that it can survive *complete* substrate replacement? I used Claude so I could get this out today and let everyone have some time to consider it. Hope to see you at the Oracle. Sorry about the location change two weeks ago. That's what I get for trusting local weather predictions!

**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.
