To attend the free event in Seattle, you must pre-register on the MIT alumni site http://alumweb.mit.edu/clubs/pugetsound/events/register.html Suppose you have a great company idea but the economy shows signs of trouble, money becomes harder to raise, the IPO window closes, recruiting gets harder. How do you manage your company differently in the face of economic change? We have assembled a panel of experts who have seen both sides of the business cycle and are in a position to offer some real insight. Members of the panel include Ken Morse, Managing Director of the MIT Entrepreneurship Center (Moderator); Jon Hirschtick, CEO and Co-Founder of SolidWorks; Beth Marcus, Founder and President of Glow Dog, Inc.; Fred Middleton, Founder and General Partner, Sanderling Ventures, and Burt Rubenstein, Managing Director, YankeeTek Ventures. The simulcast will be broadcast from Cambridge, MA and begin at 4:00pm Pacific Daylight Time. The simulcast will be broadcast at SAFECO Plaza, 45th and Brooklyn in the University District. The doors will open between 3:30 and 3:45 and the event will begin at 4:00pm and end at approximately 6:00pm.
