Event Recap

SCU's Product Club hosted its 3rd flagship Product Challenge event on February 27, 2022, focused on Product Marketing. The 4-hour event was designed to inspire students for a future career in Product. Six industry experts and four participating teams of 14 graduate students attended the event virtually. Participating teams were asked to look into the idea of Product Sense. The event culminated in each team giving a presentation on their interpretation of Product Sense of improving a company's product and image followed by thought-provoking comments by the judges.

Teams' Product Sense Presentations

During the 4-hour event was designed, teams were given the opportunity to prepare for future product interviews related to a key skill of developing product sense. Participating teams were asked to answer the question "How would you improve Airbnb?" in an effort to identify the problem, pain points, and solutions with appropriate prioritization. Teams assess and present these items in an effort to provide a cohesive solution to the prompt. With the help of an industry expert to provide guidance as they collaborated throughout the challenge. Teams delivered a final presentation.
