PMM JAPAN CONFERENCE #1
Overview
Name: PMM JAPAN CONFERENCE #1
Date: Monday, July 13, 2026, 10:45 AM - 5:00 PM (scheduled)
Venue: Tokyo Portcity Takeshiba Port Hall (Minato-ku, Tokyo)

Organizer: Prodelia Partners Inc.
Official Website: https://pmmjapanconference2026.prodelia.co.jp
Background of the Event
PMM (Product Marketing Manager) is an expert who connects products and markets. This role, which drives business growth by drawing strategies and using words as weapons to transcend the boundaries of product, marketing, and sales organizations, is rapidly increasing in importance with the intensifying competition in the SaaS market and the sophistication of GTM strategies.
However, in Japan, there is still an overwhelming shortage of cross-functional talent capable of delivering value across these professional boundaries. Despite the existence of many business professionals—regardless of their roles as marketers, customer success, sales, PMs, engineers, or business planners—who feel they "want to deliver the value of products correctly to the market," awareness of the PMM role itself and its career path are still not established in Japan.
The PMM JAPAN COMMUNITY, operated by our company, attracted over 300 members in just eight months since its establishment. It has maintained high enthusiasm, with offline study sessions consistently fully booked and over 70% of applicants actually attending. Encouraged by this response, we decided to host Japan's first* PMM specialized conference, under the banner of "a place to take the first step in a cross-functional career as a PMM."
Program Overview
This conference will feature a rich agenda including keynotes, case studies, and panel discussions. Numerous sessions will provide practical knowledge from the field, covering topics such as establishing PMM organizations, GTM design, and launch strategies. The closing session will feature a special lecture by neuroscientist Dr. Kenichiro Mogi titled "'Human Power' in the AI Era — How Cross-Functional Talent Survives." PMM leaders, PMM practitioners, and professionals from diverse fields such as marketing, sales, customer success, and PdM will gather to discuss the present and future of the PMM career.

Many people actually didn't think they could aim to become a PMM. However, when they encounter real-world examples, there is always a moment when they realize, "What I've been doing was PMM." This conference offers programs where you can learn about the real careers and practical knowledge of PMMs from various backgrounds. We encourage all business professionals who are thinking about "how to shape their next career" to attend.
