                      About Around The Bonfire

                      From the publisher's feed

                      Around the Bonfire is a movement started by 2 product managers and a startup coach. They gather around weekly to agree, disagree, and connect with each other on tech product management, startups, productivity, technology, and everything in between. It promises to be a discussion like no other, focusing on their own experiences on building digital products in the Philippines and Southeast Asia.
