I'm excited to be attending an event called ProductCampNYC. Here is a summary:

Loosely based on the successful BarCamp and Open Space formats, ProductCamp is an intense ad hoc gathering of product folks to share, present, network, learn, laugh, and   discuss. The agenda is defined by and voted on by attendees the morning of the event, ensuring the participants get the most out of their experience.

ProductCamp has been successfully hosted in San Francisco (twice!), Austin, and Boston. And...Atlanta and Seattle are in the works. Here are a few reviews following these events.

          - "What a great experience to get together with a (large) group of passionate product managers and have lively discussions about how we can improve."

      - "There was a lot of collective talent assembled all striving for the same goal ... let's make product management the best career opportunity in the next few years."

If this free event sounds interesting to you, then sign up and join me at the event?
