About this Event

Products That Count, in partnership with , invites New York’s top product leaders for an evening of insight, candor, and connection on February 26 at 5:30 PM ET. (Registrations close at 11:30 am EST.)
AI ambition is high. Capital is finite. Trust is fragile.
As organizations push to modernize and prove measurable ROI, product leaders are under pressure to move faster than ever but without compromising credibility, compliance, or long-term advantage.


When speed and trust collide, how do you decide what to fund, what to ship, and what to scale?
This IRL Speaker Series is a candid, practical conversation with two leaders navigating that tension from very different contexts:


, Chief Digital Transformation Officer, Bupa Arabia
Driving transformation in a highly regulated, trust-critical environment where moving fast without guardrails can carry real regulatory and reputational consequences.

, Chief Product Officer, Digitalzone
Leading product strategy in a commercial B2B environment where adoption, differentiation, and measurable growth determine whether an initiative survives.
Moderator and Head of New York Chapter:
, Senior Director of Product Management, Capital One
Leads product and ops teams building scalable data and decisioning platforms that power acquisition offers and customer experiences across the cards/payments ecosystem. Previously, she led a global portfolio of payments intelligence / data & AI products at Mastercard, bringing 15+ years of fintech and data-product leadership.

Expect a real conversation about how senior product leaders make disciplined decisions in complex systems quickly, credibly, and at scale.
Registration is required to join. Seats are intentionally limited for a candid and collaborative atmosphere. Enjoy an inspiring evening of big ideas and peer-to-peer collaboration.
