About Event

​​Hi there! 🀩

​If you are new here, a warm welcome to this amazing community of open-minded individuals looking to learn something new about Product Management! 😎
Else, welcome back fam to the fun-loving TPF community! πŸŽ‰

​In this fifth edition of Grabchai, we are bringing you a freshly brewed dose on insights into the life of a PM in the government sector β˜•

β€‹β€‹πŸ’« Wondering how different processes are in the government sector for the role of a Product Manager? You might have spoken to many Product Managers from the private sector before, but this is where you are getting a deep-dive into the other side, where products are made for Public Good. Ever wondered what are some of the products developed by the government sector?

β€‹πŸ€© Many of them - ParkingSG, ScamShield, and ActiveSG, just to name a few. Other products may be invisible to you, but you may be benefitting from what they provide, such as CDC vouchers. Yet others help those public sector professionals to serve the public, or even to defend the skies over Singapore.

​What exactly goes behind the scenes of building and maintaining these apps? Who are the people involved, and what organisations in government do they work for?

​⭐ If you're reading this, you might either be someone wanting to break into the Product space or someone who is already within the space and looking to go above and beyond to lead a team!
