EVENT FULLY BOOKED

Ultrafast Broadband is coming to New Zealand soon. But what are the economic opportunities that flow from this new infrastructure?

WebTV? Hyper-ISPs? Global Data Centres? Virtual Museums? Gaming? Education? Film?

How can we draw upon Wellington’s existing pool of creativity to build new high value ventures?

An expert panel including InternetNZ CEO Vikram Kumar and Crown Fibre Holding’s Rohan MacMahon frame this question, then we divide into teams to brainstorm, select and pitch innovative ideas from the floor. It’s a chance to meet entrepreneurs, developers and technical people and to have fun creating some new ventures together.

MC/Provocateur will be serial web entrepreneur Lance Wiggs.

To make it interesting, there’s a prize up for grabs too of a $300 food & drink tab for the winning team. Plus of course there’s beer, pizza and great networking!

Date: Tuesday 17th May 2011
