The Talk
When building is free, what's left to build?

The cost of building software is dropping faster than anyone expected. Teams that took months to deliver are now shipping in days. But more speed doesn't mean better products, it means the bottleneck has moved. In this talk, Beatriz explores what changes for product managers when execution is no longer the constraint, and why the most valuable skill in product might not be what you think.

The Talk
The Beauty Of Failure

A talk exploring how failure drives learning, innovation, and long-term business success. Grounded in academic research across different disciplines and real-world examples, it reframes mistakes as a critical part of organisational performance—not the opposite of it.
Refined over years of “failure”, this talk incorporates real stories from participants from all around the world and across diverse professional backgrounds—making each session unique and turning it into a live, interactive conversation.
It builds on three core norms that turn mistakes into a fundamental driver of progress—while equipping attendees with practical tools they can apply immediately, regardless of role, sector, or organisational context, to fail in a more meaningful way.
