Ryan
Kimura
Vice President of Product Marketing
SPINS
As an entrepreneur, Ryan started young. At 10, he set up shop in front of his grandmother's house selling homegrown vegetables to passersby. He still have that binder of meticulous sales records. In school, he loved music and started DJing parties. Tens of thousands of earnings later, that evolved into bigger events, weddings, and sound system installations. Early in my career, he was obsessed with food, specifically making locally produced products more accessible. So he created Local Foods, building the missing infrastructure to make it as easy for chefs to order Illinois onions, meat or grain as from any major distributor. Now, I'm enthralled by AI and the modern B2B sales motion. He transforms how enterprise software companies connect products to people through strategic product marketing and go-to-market excellence. As a revenue-focused product marketing and GTM leader with two decades of experience, Ryan has generated over $40M in new businesses, products and partnerships. he specializes in B2B SaaS product strategy, applied AI implementation, and sales enablement for revenue teams of 150+. His superpower is distilling complex concepts into simple, shared understanding and he thrives at the intersection of product strategy and revenue execution.

Panel: Has AI made PMM more important, or less?
For anyone who has wondered whether their role is expanding or contracting. This panel puts the question directly to people who sit above, beside, and outside of product marketing — and invites the audience to push back. There are no clean answers here, just honest perspectives from people making org design decisions right now. What should PMMs own? What should they stop doing? What does it look like when PMM gets the mandate it deserves? Our panel will discuss: - What senior leaders actually think PMM should own in an AI-first organisation - Where PMMs are quietly losing ground — and the reasons nobody says out loud - What it looks like when PMM earns and keeps a genuine strategic mandate
