NEW YORK ENTREPRENEUR WEEK 2009
“Stand Up and Come Together”
Entrepreneurs are the catalysts for overcoming today’s economic odds, and we’re setting the stage in New York for this groundbreaking event to catapult entrepreneurs to even greater success.
Our goal is to make connections across diverse industries, from young idea-stage innovators to hundred million dollar revenue generators, and join them together in a unifying movement that propels inspired business, facilitates lasting connections, and generates opportunities for more successful entrepreneurial ventures.
New York Entrepreneur Week (NYEW) is the first movement of its kind, providing a framework for unifying the state’s most important entrepreneurial groups with the vastly diverse entrepreneurial community. NYEW is New York State’s premier forum where entrepreneurs can learn, grow, connect and leverage opportunities to do what they do best: drive economic change in exponential ways.
Core Values:
- The best interest of the entrepreneur is paramount
- Pioneer concepts which innovatively challenge the status quo
- Embrace, aggregate and leverage the passion, spirit and relentlessness of the entrepreneur
