UNBOX

An all-day event elevating frontline product managers

Keep me posted

What is Unbox? 🤔

Unbox is for product managers who want to elevate their careers. There is little formal education for our industry, and we’ve found that the best way to help PMs improve is to get them in a room with other high-caliber PMs.

We’re focused on elevating frontline PMs—the ones embedded with engineering teams, talking to customers, querying databases, and owning the backlog. They are de facto leaders and influencers who own a product’s success. We believe that when product managers succeed, our city prospers.

Really inspired and energized by the talks I heard today at – amazing line up and I’m super impressed with the product community in Boston. This is a great place to build product.

It was the best and most useful event of its type that I’ve ever attended! (And I’ve been to a bunch)

This is the most introvert friendly conference ever. Kudos Boston Product, I haven’t needed to go hide in the bathroom 🙌

I’m absolutely on my own in product where I am and appreciated the added perspective and reassurance that I am, in fact, doing good PM work.

Why do PMs love Unbox? 😍

Unbox is an experience created by and for product people. We’re constantly iterating to make sure that people feel comfortable and sessions are informative, enjoyable, and actionable. We’ve been “introvert-friendly” since Day One. But don’t take our word for it. See what past attendees have to say about Unbox.

Our Values 🧬

Gratitude

Unbox is a community-driven event, and we sincerely appreciate all the speakers, volunteers, organizers, and attendees that come together every year to make it possible. At Unbox, we ask everyone to find a way to express their gratitude for something they learn or observe.

Empathy

What good would a product management conference be without a heavy dose of empathy? Unbox is designed for all attendees to be engaged without being overwhelmed or exhausted. At Unbox, think of others in the room when you ask a question. Think of the people at your office as you take notes.

Inclusivity

We want Unbox to provide value everyone, and Boston Product has always been committed to representing a range of perspectives in the room. We want everyone to feel comfortable and welcome, and in 2019 we’re taking additional steps to ensure access for underrepresented entrepreneurs through our Pay the Way partnership.
