  • Vasiliy Popov from C.T.Co will talk about three important things that can make or break digital products: product thinking, product philosophy and product validation.
    It’s no longer enough to release your apps or services and hope for the best. You need to engage your users by establishing a communication language, development transparency, and direct feedback channels. But even if you just started working on your product or startup, thinking that you know best what the users need is a sure way to kill your startup quickly. That is why empathy mapping, prototyping, user testing and user validation should be part of your daily vocabulary.

  • Uldis Karlovs-Karlovskis from DevOps KK will bring practical ideas on how to keep your software business successful in the talk: “Continuous Deprovement will eat your product for breakfast”
    Product Management and Mindset are crucial components for successful product development. However, even mastering those in a competitive market may not be enough. Having a growing business is a double-edged sword. At the last talk of the evening, Uldis will talk about the typical mistakes in well-managed product development companies and how to overcome them.
