New York's Business VIPs Gather at 2020 Startups "VIP Kick-Off Event"

This Summer's 2020 Startups VIP Kick-Off event will have you going gaga over the attending VIP list. The VIP Kick-Off event will give guests the chance to rub elbows with decision makers from Microsoft, IBM, Wall Street Journal, Manhattan Chamber of Commerce, Digital.NYC, Venture1st, and many more.

This sneak peek event - into the 2020 Startups ecosystem - features a night of introductions between 2020 participants, partners, investors, advisers, mentors, sponsors and the press.

The focus will be on this summer's accelerator participants as business VIPs meet and greet overlooking the waterfront and city skyline from the 20th Floor on Broadway.

The attending business VIPs include Jessica Walker, President of Manhattan Chamber of Commerce, Kerianne DeSantis, Community Manager at Microsoft, Marcos Dinnerstein, Editor at Digital.NYC, Luis Leon, Startups Ecosystem Business Development, at IBM, Jill Lazar, Marketing Manager at the Wall Street Journal, and many more.

Some of the night's attending VIPs include the 2020 Startups Board of Advisers. Stephen Hersh from Shark Tank, Maria Blekher Director of Marketing Online Program at Yeshiva University, Josh Cline CEO of Venture1st, Kris Ruby, America's Social Media Expert, Zalman Kogan, Global Biz-Dev expert formerly from the Israeli Government's Economic Ministry, Biana Borukhovich Esq, and Home Shopping Network's TV Host Lucy Norris.

If that wasn't enough, the night's keynote goes to Tina Glickman, the business development director of North America for Gust.com. Gust connects Startups with the largest collection of investors across the world, and Tina will give guests insight on how over $1.8 billion was invested into startups using Gust. If you're looking for funding, you can't afford to miss this one.

Rumor has it Tina will be giving away multiple copies of the new book "The Startups Checklist" written by Gust CEO David S. Rose himself.

Other news whispered around the office includes a special offer from Jessica Walker, President of Manhattan Chamber of Commerce regarding memberships and Marketing Week NYC.

Although the attending Business VIPs are a big deal, some may argue the Accelerator's Startups are bent on stealing the show.

The participating Startups include an e-commerce platform that incentivizes your neighbors to pick up packages when you're not home; a recyclable eco-friendly bike helmet already causing waves in England; an artisanal desserts company that produces organic, gluten free, and sugar free desserts with a mind-blowing taste; and even a Health-Tech Startup that created a disposable test designed for people to screen and monitor for anemia at home.

There's also a line of esteemed publicists attending the event, with one example being a seasoned professional who led Skype's PR team for nearly a decade.

With so many visionaries and Business VIPs attending the 2020 Startups Kick-Off event, is it any wonder why Examiner.com said 2020 Startups is a "super hero for early stage entrepreneurs"?

The night kicks off this upcoming Wednesday evening, June 1st, with a sushi bar reception and networking opportunities with some of the city's most prominent companies and organizations. The night's schedule then follows with a panel of introductions from the accelerator's participants, a keynote presentation and a final networking segment before closing the night away.

Looking forward to seeing you on Wednesday! You'll find all the info in the link below including a 50% discounted ticket for yourself.
