Who are we?
An exciting new Club has been formed in Columbus called the “Columbus PdM Club.” The Columbus PdM Club is a free social networking event connecting Product Managers in Central Ohio. The club’s goal is to provide a forum for learning and networking (usually over drinks) among Product Managers. The educational aspect will cover current developments in product management, inviting local Product Managers to share their insight during events. The club will also serve as a platform for discussions on all major drivers of the product management discipline such as new technologies, methodologies, best practices, and emerging models for product development.
