In the afternoon, you'll hear from top entrepreneurs from NYC and the Valley, VCs, and other experts. We're particularly excited to have the CEOs of Indeed.com and Shutterstock [SSTK] -- companies that had two of NYC's biggest exists -- on stage together, sharing how they did it.

And after a full day, enjoy a networking reception with stunning views of the Hudson.

Grab your early-bird tickets (at entrepreneur-friendly rates) before they expire.
