Beyond operational excellence: Scaling teams, products, and platforms across a portfolio
Managing multiple product portfolios across different companies introduces a unique blend of complexity, opportunity, and organizational challenge. This session explores the fundamental question most product leaders face when moving to portfolio or operating roles: what should be centralized for efficiency, and what should remain independent to preserve culture and speed? This talk invites CPOs to focus on operational excellence and understand the people and organizational design decisions that actually determine whether scale works or breaks.

Interactive roundtables
This interactive roundtable session brings Chief Product Officers together for in-depth, peer-led discussions on the most pressing challenges facing product leaders today. Attendees will choose a table hosted by an experienced CPO speaker, each focused on a specific strategic topic. Each roundtable runs for 45 minutes and is designed to be conversational rather than presentational. Speakers will guide discussion with a small group of 10–20 peers, encouraging open dialogue, shared experiences, and practical takeaways. Expect candid conversations, real-world insights, and the opportunity to learn directly from fellow product leaders facing similar challenges at scale. Topics include: - Scaling High-Performing Product Teams Without Losing Focus (Vinod Suresh) - Organizing in the Age of AI: balancing velocity, foundational investment, and future bets (Siddharth Shroff) - Speed vs trust (shipping AI without breaking user confidence) (Ivan Galea) - Vibe Coding: Balancing Flow, Focus, and Product Outcomes (Dan Olsen)
