Side Activities
We do our best to create a great atmosphere for you and all other attendees during the conference itself, but for the full experience we encourage you to also participate in the following side events for additional chances to meet with your peers.
Wednesday - September 11th
Leadership Dinner by airfocus
Only for our Leadership Forum attendees
Thursday - September 12th
Work from SPACE
If you are in town for Product at Heart but need a space to get some work done during one of the conference days you are kindly invited by nextMedia.Hamburg, part of Hamburg Kreativ Gesellschaft, to work from their beautiful SPACE in Hamburg’s Speicherstadt (former warehouses that are a UNESCO World Heritage site). Just state that you are a Product at Heart attendee at the entrance. Our friend Andreas Spiegler, a regular at SPACE, will be there as well and is happy to tell you more about the local product initiatives in the media space - or just be your local companion for lunch if you like.

Blind Date Dinners
You are welcome to sign up for a curated blind date on the evening of September 12th (the night before the main conference day): we will put together groups of 8-10 product people who probably do not know each other yet and send you to some of our favorite restaurants in Hamburg where we have booked a table for you.
The rest is up to you: eat & drink what you like and pay for it yourself. You can stay as long as you like and ideally make some new contacts that you can catch up with during the conference the next day or that you can introduce to your colleagues & existing contacts.
We first experienced this format at the amazing The Conference in Malmö/Sweden where we met many great people during such dinners. The Product Blind Date Dinners at our former events were a great success and some participants even decided to set up their own recurring meetings afterwards.
The Blind Date Dinners are open to all Product at Heart ticket holders. (Leadership Forum, Workshop & Conference participants)
👉 Sign up here (CLOSED)
We will inform you in early September where your dinner will take place and who else will be joining.
Take a Product Walk
Join us for a special Product at Heart edition of the regular Product Walk, an exchange format where product experts meet to discuss professional topics and challenges while taking a walk. The organizing team, led by Hardy Kühne will create a route that showcases Hamburg's major sights and hidden gems. You'll explore different parts of the city while meeting new people. You can participate in two walks during the Product at Heart Festival. A Festival Warmup Walk on Thursday and a small sightseeing walk on Saturday. We are really looking forward to seeing you.
Friday - September 13th
Product Speed Coaching
Ever wondered what it’s like to work with the people who inspire you? At this year’s conference, you can experience it yourself by participating in the Alumni Speed Coaching.
Previous years’ speakers are giving back to the amazing Product at Heart community by hosting two coaching sessions each during lunchtime. This is your chance to pick their brains on product strategy, prioritization, AI, product ops, and much more.
Choose the coach that best aligns with your challenges and submit your interest through Typeform. But hurry, we only have 12 places in total!
Please note that a professional photographer will be present at the session.
👉 Sign up here (CLOSED)
Share Your Aha Moment
Capture and share your key insights and breakthrough moments from the conference! During each break, visit our "Aha Moment" station, presented by Britta Ullrich. Britta will artistically visualize your discoveries on postcards, creating unique and inspiring keepsakes. Celebrate and spread the wisdom gained at Product at Heart by sharing your aha moments with fellow attendees.
👉 Just visit Britta in the breaks
Partner Expo
Join us at the Partner Expo on Friday, where product professionals can explore a range of innovative tools and services to enhance their work. Engage with leading companies, discover the best solutions for your challenges, and learn about opportunities to streamline your processes and improve productivity. It's an excellent chance to network with industry experts and find the perfect solutions to support your success.
Conference Afterparty
Join us for the conference afterparty at Kampnagel, the main conference venue. Weather permitting, we’ll hang out on the patio, and in case of rain, there’s plenty of room inside to enjoy a drink, some snacks (including veggie & vegan options), and chat with fellow product people.
Saturday - September 14th

Explore Hamburg on your own
We think Hamburg is a lovely city to visit but sometimes its hard to experience “the real Hamburg” if you are just a tourist. We want you to feel more like a local so we’ve put together a Google Map with many tips for your stay.
