The 6 best Product Thinking events in 2021

January 18, 2021

Although nothing beats the invaluable opportunity to pick the brains of the experts and share ideas in person, it’s now easier than ever to attend some of the world’s biggest product events.

Books and blog posts are great, but with many industry events now virtual, it opens up a whole new way to learn, meet and connect with fellow product people across the globe. This is never more true than when you’re dealing with a whole new way of working that’s evolving and improving all the time – like Product Thinking.

Whether you’re totally new to this progressive approach, or you’re already an advocate, these are the upcoming events that you won’t want to miss, including a couple that are taking place right here at Code Computerlove.
