Innovate NY Series: Global Innovation and Entrepreneurship

April 1, 2009

Speakers include:

Vivek Wadwha, a fellow with the Labor and Worklife Program at Harvard Law School and executive in residence/adjunct professor at the Pratt School of Engineering at Duke University
Jonathan Bowles, Director, Center for an Urban Future
Matt Nimetz, Chief Operating Officer, General Atlantic

This is part of a series exploring New York’s potential as a global leader in innovation. While New York is known as a center of excellence in many fields, it is not widely thought of as a hub of innovation. This series will explore why that is and look at the role of innovation in fields from finance to arts and culture. We will convene leaders in science, technology, finance and business to discuss New York’s strengths, opportunities and challenges.
