You can feel it in the air: economic recovery. XSITE 2012 is all about exploring ways to fuel the momentum and hit the gas pedal on growth. What are the most successful strategies for launching, investing in, and managing new ventures in today’s climate, and how can established companies capitalize on it as well? Which emerging areas—such as Big Data and analytics, mobile software, e-tailing, fashion-tech, healthcare, and advertising—offer the most promise for new exponential growth? Xconomy is convening top entrepreneurs, innovators from public companies, VCs, angel investors, and technologists from New England and beyond to address these questions and more. So please join us for a high-spirited event that will help inspire and inform success as the recovery accelerates.
