Description
According to the WSJ VC funding of consumer web and mobile companies in 2012 was down 42% over the previous year.

While this might sound bleak to some, the reality is that the shift we’re seeing is opening up new opportunities for New York based entrepreneurs who can capitalize on alternative opportunities by adjusting their focus.

Join American Express OPEN Forum, the network for entrepreneurs at the Business & Entrepreneurship Hub at Bloomberg and a number of leading analysts, venture investors and entrepreneurs as they lay out what problems New York entrepreneurs should be addressing in the next three years. Moderated by Deirdre Bolton, Bloomberg TV.

SESSION AGENDA:

PART 1: WHERE WE NEED TO GO

- Eugene and Jalak will discuss the directions that entrepreneurs should be heading in and the market areas and business problems they should be addressing.

PART 2: HOW WE GET THERE

- Two entrepreneurs, Kelsey and James will share their ideas on the actual process and how they are executing to get there.

PART 3: INTERACTION

- All 4 speakers and the audience engage in a discussion on these future trends and the solutions we need to get there.
