Join energized regional entrepreneurs, representatives and professionals committed to responsible and sustainable economic growth in the Adirondack North Country Region.

Entrepreneurship Centers from across the Northeast and other rural communities plan to join many of the sessions this year, creating the best in education, information and new idea exchanges for telecommuters, government representatives and small businesses.

The 2012 conference will offer a variety of discussions geared toward assisting local business owners and improving efficiency, sustainability, and overall profitability of their enterprise.

The agenda for the 2012 Forever Wired Conference is as follows:

  • 11:30-12:00 Lunch
  • 12:00-12:30 Keynote
  • 12:30-1:00 Connectivity Success Stories
  • 1:00-2:00 Panel Discussion and Questions
  • 2:00-2:30 Closing Remarks

This year’s conference will feature a keynote speaker with a vast background in broadband connectivity issues in rural New York State. His experiences include involvement in both federal and state broadband connectivity policies.

Connectivity Success Stories will feature personal stories from Northern New Yorkers whose lives and businesses have been significantly impacted by broadband accessibility.

Our Panel will include several professionals from the greater Adirondack region who have leveraged broadband connectivity into successful business models. These individuals will discuss future challenges faced in Northern New York, and several strategies and policies that may be used to face them.

Professionals and organizations are invited to set up promotional displays at the conference to connect with other entrepreneurs who may be seeking their services.

Free one-on-one consultations with experts from Clarkson University’s Shipley Center for Innovation and Reh Center for Entrepreneurship are available upon request!
