From 280 Group to Productside: Our Mission & Brand Evolution
We help product teams build things people actually want to buy and use. Formerly known as 280 Group, we evolved into Productside to reflect what we do best: sit firmly on the product side of your business—where strategy, execution, and outcomes meet. Our promise is simple: practical training, proven frameworks, and advisory that stick long after the workshop ends.
