The Board

The program is shaped by three perspectives.

Each brings a different lens to ensure PMF 2026 is relevant, bold, and grounded.

  • Cosima Lefranc

    01 The Practitioner

    Cosima Lefranc

    Co-organizer of PMF 2026. Connects the practitioner community to the people shaping what comes next. Ensures the program stays grounded in real work while looking forward.

  • Tanja Lau

    02 The Community

    Tanja Lau

    The connective tissue of the Swiss product scene. If you've been to a product event in Switzerland, Tanja was probably behind it. She makes sure PMF reflects the community it serves — not just the loudest voices.

  • Yariv Adan

    03 The Visionary

    Yariv Adan

    Sees where the field is heading before the rest of us get there. Pushes the program to tackle what's coming, not just what's comfortable. The talks you didn't know you needed. Also leading panel sessions at PMF 2026.

The Conference builders

The people behind PMF

PMF 2026 is revived and relaunched by four organisers who each came to this community from a different angle - and stayed because it changed how they think about product.

  • Agnes Szeberenyi

    Agnes Szeberenyi

    A builder who works across business, tech, and leadership, and gets things done. Over a decade building conferences, communities, and ecosystems from the ground up, from CERN to Switzerland's leading tech and leadership conferences. Part of PMF since 2017, she ran speaker ops for 87+ talks and led its APAC edition. Off stage she builds and orchestrates the agentic teams that run her own day job.
