I am fangirl-ing over Julie Zhuo! I’ve seen Scott Belsky on Reforge, and really love his thinking. This is a great lineup! **clicks submit**

Good ones! Deb is coming on the podcast in a couple of weeks (and already had Teresa and Kim on), and Deb was on the short list of speakers, and may still happen 👀

Elena was at the top of my list, but sadly she's busy that day 😭 I almost moved the conference date for this reason.

Seems great, and really useful to those of us in small orgs who have no internal network. I wish there was some sort of discount for those of us at startups who have to personally pay to attend events.

The economics of conferences are tricky (e.g. to avoid losing a lot of money), but next time we'll definitely do something like this once we get the hang of it.

Lenny - Could you share more about the format of the sessions? 1000 is a large audience and would love to understand.

Still working on it, but it's going to be a combination of 30m talks from some of the top product minds in tech, intimate peer roundtables, and some other fun stuff we've got in store...

OK, thanks. Keep us posted as this is know. My company (and I) would like to know more before they approve the reimbursement. :)
