We're honoured to partner with the Productized conference in Lisbon, Portugal — an amazing conference for gathering for product leaders, designers and innovators. Productized consistently delivers thoughtful programming, practical takeaways and a warm, curious community. We're proud to be back for the third year running and grateful to Bobcats Coding for powering this Lisbon series.
This short, sharp episode features Rich Mironov on what’s next for AI, why current valuations look fragile, where the new bottlenecks will appear, and a brutally useful reminder: learn to speak the language of money.
Key topics discussed

  • Why the current AI funding frenzy looks like a bubble and what that means for product teams.
  • The real costs of AI — energy, data, and sustainable revenue models.
  • New bottlenecks that emerge if engineering friction disappears.
  • How product people should talk to go-to-market teams: make it a financial story.
  • Practical mentoring tips for product leaders working with sales and execs.

Guest bio:

Rich Mironov — veteran product leader, speaker and author known for candid guidance on product strategy, go-to-market thinking and product org design. Rich mentors product officers, speaks globally about business cases and is respected for blunt, practical advice that helps product teams connect technology to business value.

Listen, learn, act: If you build or lead product teams, this is a timely primer on aligning product roadmaps with real economics, and a reality check on AI hype.
Thanks to our sponsors Bobcats Coding for making our Lisbon series possible. Download their AI economics guidebook at bobcatscoding.com and support the shows that bring these conversations to life.
