Building software right is *not* the same thing as building the right software. What if, rather than relying on static requirements documents alone, you could create a visual and interactive experience to assist all team members to visualize what the system was really meant to do? Could you do a better job eliciting requirements? Involve more stakeholders? Manage expectations? Deliver the right software?

This talk will explore how forward-looking companies are using simulation to solve communication challenges, better engage end users, and improve collaboration on projects. It will also highlight simulation as a platform for experimentation - helping companies to realize remarkable results in terms of the software they deliver, the speed with which it's brought to market, and their ability to delight end users.

Speaker: David Walker, Product Evangelist at iRise
Topic: Simulation: A multi-media approach to application definition

The Silicon Valley Product Management Association (SVPMA) is an organization that was founded to address the needs of Product Managers, Product Marketing Managers and other professionals working within the Product Management field. 

We meet every month with speakers, panels or presentations that focus on day-to-day issues, career development, emerging trends or any other issues that strike our fancy.

The goal of SVPMA is to provide a forum for education, networking and community amongst those who work in product management. That includes, but is not limited to Product Managers, Product Marketing Managers, Marketing Managers, Directors of Product Management, and VPs of Product Management.
