About Us

How We Got Our Start

​

The Product Management Association of Los Angeles (PMA.LA), was founded in 2012 as a small Meetup group, to bring together Product Managers from companies around town, to learn from one another about who’s practicing digital product management in Los Angeles, and how the craft varies from one organization to another.

​

Ten years later, we have grown to become a non-profit organization, with over 2,000+ product professionals, with events hosted by leading companies such as Google, Fandango, and Pivotal Labs.

​

Our mission is to provide learning and networking opportunities, for our community. The group is free to join and open to all digital innovation and management professionals.  Many of our programs are free and some have nominal fees to cover costs. We organize after-work events every 1-2 months and our mentorship program where we connect working Product Managers with students from underrepresented populations to make a more diverse, better next-gen of Product People.
