LTP 2026 Conversation Continued with Taufiq Khan

LTP 2026 Conversation Continued with Taufiq Khan

Thu, Jun 11, 7:30 AM
From LTP Events Sydney
4.6

**LTP 2026 Conversation Continued with Taufiq Khan** After one of the most talked-about sessions at Leading the Product 2026, [Taufiq Khan](https://www.linkedin.com/in/taufiqkhan/) is back for an intimate fireside chat to continue the conversation. Hosted by LTP Events and [The Onset](https://theonset.com.au/), this special evening will go deeper into the ideas, provocations, and practical insights from TK’s standout presentation at LTP 2026 — exploring why continuous synthesis is becoming one of the most important skills in modern product leadership, and how AI can help teams turn chaos into clarity. In a world overloaded with information, shifting priorities, and constant noise, how do product teams focus on what actually matters? Drawing on his experience across industries, TK will unpack how teams can better manage information, improve decision-making, move faster with confidence, and build what he calls a “context machine” — a smarter way to simplify inputs and create clearer outcomes. If you attended LTP 2026, this is your chance for an awesome double-dose of TK and an opportunity to go even deeper into the conversation. And if you missed the conference, you’ll discover why Taufiq as a fresh view on product and AI in general. Following the fireside chat, we’ll open things up for audience Q&A and networking — giving you the chance to connect with fellow product leaders navigating the same opportunities and challenge. **Evening timeline:** 5.30 – 6.15pm: Arrive, grab a drink, and connect 6.15 – 7.00pm: Fireside chat with Taufiq Khan and Q&A 7.00 – 8.00pm: Networking, conversation, and connection We’ll have light food and drinks covered — all we ask is that you bring your curiosity and your questions. [The Onset](https://www.theonset.com.au/?utm_source=chatgpt.com "https://www.theonset.com.au?utm_source=chatgpt.com") is one of Australia’s leading Digital, Product, Technology, Data, and Design recruitment and executive search firms, partnering with some of the country’s most recognised consumer, SaaS, retail, fintech, and technology businesses. They specialise in building high-performing Product and Digital teams across both contingent and executive search, supporting everything from critical leadership hires and CPO successions through to large-scale transformation and growth initiatives across the Australian market. **Reserve your spot today. RSVPs are limited and will close soon.**
