As Propel Software came to establish itself as a category leader, we looked for a place to contribute what we’d learned along the way, where relevant insight and practical solutions are shared.��

A hub where experts were writing about business and digital transformation, sharing product and manufacturing industry news, and relaying best practices and current learnings. Somewhere where a community was being formed.

We looked, but we couldn’t find it. (Spoiler alert: It didn't exist.)

From Category Leader to Thought Leader

In the past few years alone, we’ve seen a global pandemic, countless supply chain disruptions, climate chaos, and economic downturns.

Despite these headwinds, we observed innovative trends among our own customers and in the world of product manufacturing as a whole. We learned which tactics were helping certain product companies triumph amid turmoil.

In the spring of 2022, we took those learnings and introduced a new approach to product strategy—a new category entirely—called Product Value Management (PVM), the crux of which was to center the customer in product strategy.

For consumer goods and high tech companies, PVM enabled product and commercialization teams to join forces for the purpose of enhancing customer  experience. For medtech companies, patient experience was the same.

So here we are, after seven years of developing new solutions, observing trends, forming relationships with industry experts, and ultimately creating a new category.��

All we need now is a space to share all the insights we’ve gained.

We realized—if we’re already forging a new path in product value management—we may as well create this space ourselves.

A Name for Ourselves

Along with our strong partnership with Salesforce, we developed fruitful relationships with known industry influencers such as Acceleration Economy and Zero100.��

Thought leaders in the digital revolution such as Geoffrey Moore, Kirsten Allegri Williams, and Vala Afshar have guided our thinking and contributed to our current learnings.

Executives from across industries—medtech, high-tech, industrial equipment, consumer goods—were frequent guests and contributors to and speakers at our annual gathering .

Not to mention all the incisive, creative innovators we had right here in-house!

Clearly, we had no shortage of content. We really just needed a name.

From all these great minds and insightful conversations, we kept hearing the same message over and over again—regardless of industry, product success happens when product and commercialization teams converge on the customer.

We introduced a whole new product management category based on this trend. Why not name our new content hub after it?
