Technology & Entrepreneurship In Perspective

In my last post I referred to Chris Shipley, a journalist and analyst of the Demo conference. Read the About Demo page and you will recognize that this is a conference worth following, especially if you are interested in market trends and cutting-edge entrepreneurship. The special thing about Demo is that every company presenting there has not yet officially launched. So definitely the right place to follow early stage ideas and concepts.

“For an early look at emerging technologies, the Demo conferences can’t be beat. Attended by corporate execs, entrepreneurs, venture capitalists and other tech junkies, the semiannual events feature demonstrations of dozens of new products, none of which has previously been shown publicly. Unlike other trade shows that allow any company that can afford it to exhibit, each product at the Demo conferences is handpicked by executive producer Chris Shipley, a discerning journalist and analyst who has covered the industry for more than 20 years.” Mary Kathleen Flynn “The Woman Behind the Curtain,” The Deal, October 27, 2006

Check out their informative website. They offer a video archive of Demo conference videos, a 6 minutes podcast series with former participants and a blog worth following.
