Upcoming NYC Events – Entrepreneur Week and LaidOffCampNY

There are a couple of major events coming up this month in NYC that I thought were worth a mention. We are a media sponsor (whatever that means) for both and hope to see everyone out there. In fact, if you are looking to travel to NYC, this might be a great time to do it. I’ve been watching hotel rates and they are the lowest I’ve seen in years (since 9/11) – if you need help with travel planning, let me know.

NYC Entrepreneur Week

A week’s worth of activities and events around the city and here’s the best part – everything is free! I will be speaking on Tuesday evening with a few other media people about the future of the media landscape. It looks like every facet of entrepreneurship will be covered from starting, funding, expanding, hiring, along with ways to leverage resources in NYC. There are also a few parties mixed into the agenda.

LaidOffCampNY

The NYC version of LaidOffCampNY will take place on May 1st and 2nd at Pace University. The offerings will help people with their careers and also help with entrepreneur training. The event is directed towards entry to mid-level digital media, advertising, publishing, technology and financial service professionals. This event is also free.
