Do you ever wonder what to build? How do you know that if you build it, they will come?

In this session, we plan to dialogue with top local product professionals who launch new products into the market and leverage various inputs to quickly iterate and improve upon their product. This will be both a strategic and tactical discussion on how different product managers connect with their customers, correctly assess the customer's reactions/needs to the existing product, and then modify the product roadmap to maximize their product's value to the customer. Additionally, we will cover non-direct customer based feedback, primarily through data analysis, A/B testing, and other product tools, to assess a products effectiveness.

This is the perfect panel discussion for existing or aspiring product practitioners to learn about how to collect, assimilate, and incorporate customer feedback into their product strategy.
