**¡Querid@s [#ProductPeople](https://www.linkedin.com/feed/hashtag/?keywords=productpeople&highlightedUpdateUrns=urn%3Ali%3Aactivity%3A7176297775532302336)!** En mayo, el Mes del Producto, nos volvemos a reunir junto a Agile Chile con una edición distinta. Porque hoy, construir productos cambió. Con inteligencia artificial, pasar de una idea a un prototipo puede tomar minutos. Y por eso, este encuentro no será solo para hablar de producto… 👉 será para construir. Tendremos una experiencia práctica, colaborativa y en vivo, donde veremos cómo distintas personas están creando productos hoy y luego lo haremos juntos en la misma instancia. 📢 ¿Cómo será la dinámica? 🔹 Icebreaker Partiremos conectando entre todos para romper el hielo y conocernos. 🔹 Show Time (Pitch) Invitamos a 5 referentes en construcción de productos para compartir en 4 minutos: • Qué están construyendo • Qué herramientas están usando • Por qué tomaron esas decisiones 🔹 De speakers a facilitadores Después de cada pitch, los invitados pasarán a un nuevo rol: Ayudar a otros a construir. 🔹 Manos a la obra Formaremos equipos y cada grupo contará con un facilitador para: • Aterrizar ideas • Elegir herramientas • Avanzar rápido y de forma simple 💡 Ven con tu idea. Y si aún no la tienes clara, no importa: la comunidad te ayudará a darle forma. Este será un espacio para aprender haciendo, conectar con otras personas y experimentar cómo se construyen productos hoy. 🍕🍻📍⏰ Un poco de logística... 📍Universidad Andrés Bello– Providencia Antonio Varas 807, Edificio A1 - Sala 402 ⏰ 🗓️ Partiremos como siempre a las 18:30 el Miércoles 27 de Mayo.

Optimizar costos en la nube no tiene por qué significar ponerle el freno de mano a la innovación. A veces, el miedo a la factura mensual nos impide experimentar con nuevas arquitecturas, pero la clave está en la eficiencia, no en el recorte ciego. Este **30 de mayo** estaré en el **AWS Community Day Chile** compartiendo mi charla: **"Cómo optimizar costos sin frenar la innovación"**. Hablaremos de estrategias reales para que tu infraestructura sea un motor de crecimiento y no un centro de costos estático. ¡Nos vemos en Santiago para aprender, conectar y elevar la vara de la nube en la región! 🚀 #AWSCommunityDay #AWSChile #CloudOptimization #FinOps #Innovación #AWSUserGroups
