Subject: Request to Attend Product Manager Summit in San Diego

Hi [Manager’s Name],

I’d like to request approval to attend the Product Manager Summit in San Diego on June 5, 2025. This conference, powered by Product Rebels, offers a unique opportunity to gain valuable insights and connect with leading experts focused on building exceptional customer experiences.

Here’s why I believe attending will be a worthwhile investment:

  • World-Class Speakers: The summit features prominent figures like Christian Idiodi, Gibson Biddle and Ravi Mehta, who are leading voices in Product Management. They provide access to cutting-edge strategies and best practices in product management.
  • Focus on Key Trends: This year’s event emphasizes critical themes such as AI in product, product-led growth, and product discovery, which are highly relevant to our work on [Project/Product Name].
  • Skill Enhancement: The summit is designed to enhance skills in key areas like product discovery, customer research, and communication, enabling me to bring more effective techniques back to our team.
  • Networking Opportunity: The summit offers a focused environment to connect with local product managers, designers, and developers, fostering valuable relationships and connections.

I’m confident that the knowledge and network I gain at this summit will directly benefit our team by [explain 1-2 specific ways, e.g., “informing our strategy for [Specific Project/Area]” or “improving our approach to [Specific Task/Process]”]. Importantly, this conference is significantly more cost-effective than comparable events, and being in San Diego, it eliminates the need for additional travel expenses.

I’ve attached a link to the Product Manager Summit website (productmanagersummit.com) for your review. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you for considering this request.

Best regards,
