INSIGHTS FROM LEADERS AT:
Join the party

Three tracks, endless learning opportunities

All of the talks and content are organised into three tracks:

Build 🧱

Who's it for?

For everyone across the product team:

Upcoming BUILD talks:

“The product world is awash in frameworks—hundreds of them. Most of the frameworks are rehashes of the same ideas (over and over). Yet what defines great product teams are HABITS, not frameworks

In this talk, John will explore 5 key habits that every product team should work to develop. For each habit, he will discuss all the things that get in the way, and how to fix those problems.

Capturing data isn’t the trick. Analysing data isn’t the trick. Putting the data to work to drive business outcomes – that’s where the unlock happens.”

In this insightful session, we’ll discuss the fundamentals of Decision Science and explore the use of data, analytics and modelling techniques to inform and optimize business decisions.
Whether you’re a startup, a scale-up, or a large enterprise business, this session is tailored for all tech entrepreneurs and professionals seeking to leverage data science to drive operational excellence and business growth.

  • Discover the key principles of decision science and how to apply them to your business operations
  • Learn how to infuse data science and analytics to inform your decision-making process
  • Explore case studies from businesses who have leveraged decision science to drive growth

“With new products, it is challenging to know what to build and when. How do you choose from the possibilities you have? How do you prioritise? When is data useful? When is it time to pivot? How much is good enough? Or simply, how do you get started in the first place?

In this talk, Varun shares his 0 to 1 playbook developed while building and selling his first company, shipping products for billions of users at Meta, and now creating a new B2B SaaS product for his new startup. Building a new product requires knowing when to leverage limited data, when to lean into your experience, when to question what you have learned, and when to start over.

Whether you are a product lead, engineer, designer, or founder, this talk is for anyone involved in building and launching new products.”

The rise of Product Operations was no accident, and while some questioned it’s relevance during and after the Pandemic, it’s becoming more defined and a critical focus. Between the growing importance of product-led growth as a core business model and the significance of the product manager, we are seeing the need for alignment, transparency, and a strong system for high performing teams on the rise across all types of companies.

We’ll take a look at both the evolution of product management and the role of the PM that have led to the emergence of this new practice and role. We’ll explore what it looks like across the industry today and what product ops professionals are focusing on to help teams deliver on business outcomes.

With success comes growth, but what got you “here” will rarely get you “there”. In this talk, Graeme draws on 25 years of experience in startups, midsize and big tech companies to explore the different challenges we encounter as we scale (from a handful of people to several thousand), the signals to look out for, and ways to overcome those challenges.

Grow 🌱

Who's it for?

For everyone market-facing:

Turing Fest Growth Talks
Upcoming BUILD talks:

We operate in insanely crowded markets, trying to reach customers who are completely overwhelmed with choices. We’ve tried to break through this noise using better, stronger, faster marketing and sales tactics, but all that gets us is….noisier markets.

But there is another way. This talk will teach you the secret to making market forces work for you, not against you. This session will show you how to apply the secret to using strategic positioning to help your products stand out and sell.

You want to grow your business. The challenge: there are more channels and ways to grow than ever, VC funding is drying up without a path to profitability, and the macroeconomic headwinds are an ever-changing minefield. How do you evaluate it all and know where to invest? Emily will walk you through thoughtful growth frameworks from first principles (no growth hacks here) that you can apply to drive meaningful business growth.

The key lesson: Play smarter and resist reacting to trends and tactics. Growth is a finance objective executed by product, marketing, and/ or sales strategies. It is derived firstly from your business model and business metrics — it’s a focused and practical exercise in dissecting how you make money, which part(s) of your revenue and/or cost you can directly impact, and determining the best ways to do that.

An actionable talk that reveals the psych behind words + real-world copy test results to inform better word selection – which means increased engagement and persuasiveness – for everyone who writes, which is everyone in attendance

Within customer success, you’ll often hear founders and CEOs say ‘I’d love to scale my CS program and make it a revenue center”, in fact it’s probably something you’d like to do at your own organization. When investing in a customer success team that is focused on revenue growth there are 4 things that every startup and scaleup should consider: people, process, tools, and repeatability. In this talk, I’ll discuss the top challenge most startups, scaleps, and enterprise B2B CSM teams face when scaling for revenue growth and share the tips, tricks, and learnings I have encountered in my career and how to overcome them. Ultimately this talk will help you make customer success work at different stages of revenue growth for your business.

Are you getting your full money’s worth from your content? The constant content clutter in the pursuit of vanity metrics is damaging our relationships with our audiences. What’s the antidote? Here’s what it’s not: It’s not running to stand still with the latest trends or tweaks that will have incremental impact. If you want high-impact content, you need to build to last and scale your distribution. The key here for us content marketers is to do less, not more.

Create timeless content campaigns. Get regular use out of them. Sprinkle in shorter shelf life current ‘trends’. Mix and match. You don’t have to work harder and harder. High impact comes from designing your content and distribution to work harder for you. In this session, Puna will share practical content creation strategies for making the most out of each piece of content you build.

The best tactics and frameworks in product-led growth to transform your company, reduce your acquisition costs, and grow more sustainably

It is estimated that AI will drive 95% of all customer interactions by 2025. So it’s no surprise that over the last 12 months, AI has been one of the most discussed topics around the world. Tools like DALL-E, Jasper and Midjourney have dominated these conversations and it seems with the introduction of OpenAI’s ChatGPT, there is no avoiding artificial intelligence. Companies are feverishly searching for meaningful use-cases, however with so many options and opportunities where do you even start? How do you leverage AI to drive growth for your business as well as for time savings and on top of that, which tools are best suited for your business? In this talk, Bastian will guide you through the various AI solutions you should be considering, the strategies to drive business growth, and supply plenty of practical examples along the way.

Lead 👐

Current and aspiring leaders:

Turing Fest Leadership Talks
Upcoming BUILD talks:

Chris will tell the story of what led him to use $17.3M in debt to buy out his own company and what happened next

“Procrastination can be a real buzzkill. It’s that nagging sense of putting things off until later, and it’s holding us back from reaching our full potential. You probably want to tackle procrastination because you’re tired of feeling overwhelmed and stressed out. You’re sick of missing deadlines and feeling like you’re not living up to your own expectations. Tackling procrastination leads to guilt-free time and increased potential, and we’ll even reveal the benefits of purposeful procrastination. This talk will cover:

  • The common triggers for procrastination
  • Strategies to get you moving and producing
  • The two essential questions that you need to ask yourself to assess whether procrastination is problematic or purposeful”
