Welcome to September's edition of Product-Led Post.

The leaves are starting to fall, events are underway and we’ve even had a cheeky in-person workshop…. We’re officially back to school.

As well as our in-person event with Mixpanel, we hosted our first AI for PMs Summit and now we're gearing up for the return of the Product-Led Festival, with 30+ product giants gracing our screens on October 19-21.

We hope to see you all there.

Until next time.
