[webproducers] Your're Invited: Will Tech Innovation Ever Make the Economy Boom Again?-NYC Event

The New School and NYC eComm Association Present:
Will Tech Innovation Ever Make the Economy Boom Again?
December 12th
Swayduck Auditorium, 65 Fifth Avenue
7 to 9pm

For two years, technology companies have been declaring that the dotcom bust is 
at an end. But amid widespread uncertainty and the volatility that reigns in 
the wider national economy, there are skeptics who say that perhaps we should 
accept the current situation as the norm. Emergent technologies such as Linux, 
Peer-to-Peer, XML, .Net and wireless devices and services promise to offer some 
hope for
revitalizing the information technology sector--from financial markets to 
advertising, publishing, and broadcast media to video-game design--of the 
economy. Will these technologies finally live up to the hype and re-energize 
New York City's digital economy or are the expectations unjustified? Please 
join Gregory Brill, editor of Random House's Code Notes series; Bob Savage, 
Director of .NET Business Development at Microsoft; Sven Travis, Associate 
Provost for Technology at New School University, and moderator David 
Kirkpatrick, Senior Editor for Internet and Technology issues at Fortune 
Magazine, as they discuss these emergent technologies and explore how they will 
influence New York City's economic future.
