What is WPD and why are we celebrating?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

21 May 2025 is WPD, an annual event celebrating the product management craft and community. It began in 2018<\/a> on the eight-year anniversary of the first ProductTank<\/a> meetup \u2013 ProductTanks in 90 cities across 43 countries had fun highlighting the craft of product management with their communities and delivering talks that emphasised the different perspectives that different cultures bring to the craft of product management. The anniversary became an annual event and today WPD brings product people together to celebrate, connect and learn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Digital team has a Product function comprised of a team of Product Managers who are accountable for delivery of a range of products and services enabling digital transformation at UoE, including MyExeter, the Digital Skills Initiative, and the Digital Hub.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019re celebrating WPD to highlight everything the Product team brings to the University and to enable the University community to learn more about the world of Product at UoE!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
