TROY – Join Automation Alley for the first Ideas for Impact roundtable event on May 22 to have your voice heard about the business issues that matter most to you.
At this event, you will get a chance to ask experts pressing business questions about starting, capitalizing, running and growing small and medium businesses, including roundtables devoted to finance, human resources, information technology, marketing and sales, and operations. Speakers will follow these three themes to guide conversation: rely on experts and resources, use technology and stick to what you�??re experienced in.
Josh Linkner of ePrize will be the keynote, discussing his route from start-up to success. He will also be visiting each roundtable, adding his insight and expertise.
Through this forum, Automation Alley hopes to find out what questions and concerns businesses in the area are facing, so that we can ensure that we are meeting the needs of the Automation Alley business community.
This event is member-only.
