Pitchfest for Lightning Talk slots at Leading the Product Melbourne

Leading the Product (LTP) are planning another round of Lightning Talks this year. Would you like to be one of those speakers & have the chance to present to 500+ product professionals???

We’re hosting a LTP Pitchfest to give you the chance to do exactly that!

First, we’ll hear from the folks who did Lightning Talks last year. Get their tips and hear about their experience in planning, practicing and getting up there!

Then, it’s your turn! Those of you interested will get 90 seconds to pitch what you’d like to talk about. No slides… just you sharing with the crowd & judges.

At the end of the evening, 2 people will be selected to present a Lightning Talk at Leading the Product 2018. Selection is based on the judges’ vote and votes from the audience.

At the Sydney pitchfest, Ivy Horinbrook made it thru the pitches & will be giving a talk at LTP. She said:
When I first read about pitch night, I thought “no way”. 30 pitches, one winner… sounds a little too much like gladiatorial combat. But then I thought, it’s 90 seconds, what do I have to lose? And on the night the crowd was friendly, there was a sense of camaraderie between those pitching, and it was fun to engage the crowd. I still can’t believe I won – I’ll be taking the stage in front of 400 product managers in Sydney in October, that’s a pretty amazing opportunity.

Our judges for the evening:

  • Sarah Mitchell – Product Manager for Leading the Product
  • Adrienne Tan – Co-Founder of Brainmates & Leading the Product
  • Nicole Brolan – Product Director at SEEK
  • Senior Product Leader from Culture Amp soon to be announced.
