What brings us together

Better products start with better conversations.

ChiPMA (Chicago Product Management Association) helps Chicago-area product professionals get better at conceiving, designing, building, launching, and optimizing digital products and services.

Our events go beyond polished success stories. We make room for useful debate, specific takeaways, and the kind of peer relationships that make a big city feel a little smaller.

For product managers, designers, founders, and people who work alongside them.

The ChiPMA event philosophy

Useful on Monday morning.

Our organizers have the autonomy to create focused, participatory events that serve the community.

What we value

How we show up.

Different experience levels make the community stronger. Everyone has something worth contributing.

01

Honesty

We talk candidly about real product work, including uncomfortable tradeoffs, bias, and practices that deserve a closer look.

02

Collaboration

Product work is a team sport. We connect practitioners and the organizations that employ them so both can learn and improve.

03

Community

We build real relationships across Chicago and look for ways to give more than we take.
