“Making it in NYC” is the title of the discussion organized by New York International, which will take place at Brooklyn Borough Hall on September 4, 6-9 pm (it’s free: register here).

I’m very excited to be one of the panelist together with Robert Petty, CEO Sports195, Australia and Borahm Cho, Co-founder Kitchensurfing, Germany. Moderator: Stefanie Lemcke, Founder New York International.

“The topic – according to the program – will focus on challenges and rewards of starting up in New York City from abroad as well as tips for international expansion and some resources that the city can provide international startups. The panel will include experts from three countries who have either started a business in NYC, or have insight into the startup / tech ecosystem in NYC. We aim to foster the exchange of experiences and expectations for 2015 both in New York City and international cities. In addition, how can cities better facilitate international startup expansion?”

A delegation of startups from Berlin and another one from Rome, organized by InnovActionLab, will attend the event.

Well, as they say, if you can make it in New York…
