Startup 3.0
Interactive Innovation 2013
CUNY, New York
April 2013
Summary
Interactive Innovation, the Athgo Entrepreneurship Web 3.0 in New York City was an event to remember. This being the first event of its kind, it was a great success. Every participant’s excitement and involvement increased steadily as the event continued, and rightfully so with the prize being an all expense paid trip to DC for our 5th Global Innovation Forum at the World Bank headquarters!

Not only did our participants create constructive startup concepts in two days, but as stated by one of them, started a family. The energy in the room could be felt for the entirety of the two day event.
We had some amazing guest speakers and advisors ranging in profession from hedge fund traders to self taught CEO’s. The experience in the room almost overflowed during the “talk show” style keynote discussion with Mr. Amir Dossal, the Chairman of the Global Partnership Forum and our very own Dr. Armen Orujyan.
Everything ended with a bang as it should, when the participants composed their own innovation panel to present their startups. They couldn’t have been more proud to show their ideas to us all, and after the announcement of the winners the emotion in the room could have been sliced up and served with a spoon. The best part, there were no losers. Now that’s innovation!
