ProductCamp Twin Cities is in its second year of revival after a bout with long-tail Covid. A Twin Cities gathering spot for the Product Community for over a dozen years pre-Covid, it was revived by the generosity of Best Buy and PDMA (the Product Development Management Association).

Starting with a keynote session, ProductCamp Twin Cities is a full day of presentations from all levels of members of our local Product Community. Up through September 19th, various members have proposed presentation sessions for ProductCamp. Then, from September 22nd through September 30th, registered attendees review the proposals and vote for the ones they most want to see. The proposals that receive the most attendee votes each get one of the 24 presentation slots.

ProductCamp is truly a community gathering. Lots of time and opportunity to meet new people who share your interest, a lunch that ranks as the best conference lunch in the region, and a networking happy hour to conclude the day. Join us!

By product people for product people.

ProductCamp Twin Cities is a true "unconference" where anyone and everyone can submit session topics. ProductCamp participation is open to all. Our one ask of participants is that everyone look to learn, share, and connect with others to make the event more vibrant and our product community stronger.

We update this website periodically with information on ProductCamp details, such as newly submitted speaker proposals.

ProductCamp Twin Cities has a $25 registration charge to help underwrite the cost of food. A light breakfast and full (fabulous) lunch are served to attendees. This charge helps to make the annual recurrence of ProductCamp Twin Cities financially sustainable!

ProductCamp Twin Cities 2025, an in-person, participant-driven “unconference”, will be held on Friday October 10th at Best Buy's Headquarters in Richfield. The 8:00am to 4:30pm event will be followed immediately by a networking happy hour at a nearby venue.

ProductCamp is an "Unconference" for anyone who builds, designs, markets, or manages a product or service. An unconference, unlike a conference curated by a select committee, has attendees select the presentations that will be presented, ensuring a good match between what's being presented and what attendees want to see. As the event draws near, registered attendees will be invited to vote on-line for the presentations among all submissions they most want to see. In a strictly democratic way, the highest vote-getters are invited to present. The design of the day leans into the wisdom of the crowd!
