The Room Podcast

The Room is a podcast for anyone who is passionate about consumer and technology products. We believe it is important to bring to life the stories behind the products that shape our world. Most consumers dream of being in the room where “it” happened. However, these conversations and the creation stories historically happen behind doors closed to groups across age, gender and race. In an effort to open the door, the Room is bringing together men and women across ages and races into the conversation on pivotal product stories. The podcast will consist of interview style discussions with visionary leaders, founders, and funders across consumer and technology products. Claudia Laurie and Madison McIlwain have been friends for over two years sharing product stories and a mutual love of consumer retail innovation. Having both worked in product management, they know the importance of product-led growth and the value of design-driven innovation.
