On Thursday, January 6th, the 1st annual winner of The Best Product Person (TBPP) was announced at The Product Group!

Throughout the year, as nominations poured in, I was continually excited and amazed by the highly innovative and inspiring Product People spanning the realms from startup to Fortune 500, and from peanut butter to consulting to social media. In the end, there were 8 truly outstanding finalists!

The Product Guy & The Product Group are very pleased to announce The Best Product Person of 2010 is Giff Constable of Aprizi!

Giff’s career path has traveled that of entrepreneur, artist, and investment banker — no doubt, all contributing to his outstanding product person success. He has spoken about cutting edge technology at major conferences like NRF and GDC, as well as through media outlets such as Business Week, New York Times, CNBC, NPR, ABC News, and Reuters.

Over the coming weeks we will be speaking with and learning more from Giff, some of the other finalists, as well as other up-and-coming product people met on this journey of discovery.

Thank you to everyone who participated, nominated, interviewed, passed on the word! The nominations for The Best Product Person of 2011 will begin in a few months. In the meantime, take a moment and congratulate this year’s, The Best Product Person of 2010: Giff Constable. (tweet)
