The peer-led group is part of a global movement dedicated to bridging the gender gap in the tech industry. The group welcomes UO employees who identify as women, as well as nonbinary people and allies who are comfortable in a space focused on and driven by the experiences of women working in tech.

SPM Industry Workshop: Insights-to-Brief Excellence
June 10–11
9:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m.
UO Portland

The UO Sports Product Management program is launching a new Industry Workshop series, and we're starting with one of the strongest signals we heard from industry.

Across our conversations with product, merchandising, and innovation leaders, one theme came up repeatedly: teams today have more data, dashboards, and AI tools than ever, yet many still struggle to translate consumer insights into clear, compelling direction that informs product briefs.

That's why we built an event designed specifically to address that gap. Insights-to-Brief Excellence: The FRAME Method is a two-day hands-on workshop designed for product and merchandising teams who want to see an initial idea through to its final endpoint as a product story.
