IPM Alliance Takes the “Integrated Product Management” Message on the Road

Austin, TX – April 4, 2008 – The Integrated Product Management (IPM) Alliance and sponsors 3SL, Pivotal Product Management and Ryma Technology Solutions announced today the launch of a Roadshow Series, consisting of seminars and workshops to discuss the topic of Integrated Product Management with product management professionals. The Road Show Series will be conducted across North America beginning in April.

“Integrated Product Management is the optimal coordination of four elements - business, process, people and technology - for the purpose of bringing successful products to market with increased cost margins and increased competitive margins,” said IPM Alliance president Larry Coppenrath. “The demand for IPM is increasing, and it is driven by the need for sustained competitive advantage, cross-functional leadership skills, adaptive processes and technology modularity.”

The Road Show Series will visit Alabama, Arizona, British Columbia, California, Colorado, Florida, Illinois, Minnesota, North Carolina, New Jersey, Texas and Washington, beginning in April, 2008.
