ProductCamp is an “unconference” made for Product People. The content and connections made at ProductCamp will be incredibly valuable for anyone who wants to learn from, teach, and network with other professionals in Product Management, Marketing, Development, and more. Because of the “unconference” theme, there are no attendees, only participants.

You can volunteer to give a talk, join a roundtable discussion, support behind the scenes through logistics or sponsorships, or just vote on the speakers you want to see and enjoy the experience. No matter your level of engagement, you’ll have fun and walk away glad you came to ProductCamp.

EDGE was created to not only educate but encourage open discussions on the issues that are facing every business and industry in order to help foster a community of creative problem solvers.

EDGE2017 is coming up Oct 17th – 18th. From executives and administrators to engineers, EDGE2017 will inform and foster learning of technology professionals representing small to enterprise-level organizations from all industries.
