Event Details

Start-ups will not be spared the effects of a recession, but what this means for entrepreneurs is an open question. That’s why we’ve organized The Downturn Roundtables, taking place on Wednesday, October 29th from 8am-12pm at the Stanford Park Hotel.

We’ve invited some of the most experienced and respected business leaders in Silicon Valley. The spirit of this event is to come together quickly to debate the current fallout and provide advice to start-up founders and executives about how to manage the mess we’re in. We’re organizing the event into two sessions: 1) a round-table of investors, followed by 2) a round-table of entrepreneurs.

On hand will be the following

  • Ram Shriram,  early investor in and founding board member at Google
  • Ron Conway, arguably the most prolific Web 2.0 angel investor

 

 


The Agenda is as follows:


8:00-8:30 Breakfast
8:30-9:30 Investor Roundtable
9:30-10:00 Break
10:00-11:00 Entrepreneur Roundtable
11:00-12:00 Networking
