Connecting & Innovating at TechDay 2024

I covered TechDay in New York this past Friday. This year was special because it was the 10th anniversary of TechDay. 

Over the past ten years, TechDay events have connected over 10,000 startups with over 250,000 investors, accelerators, engineers, suppliers, and other members of the tech startup ecosystem. This is according to TechDay. 

Attendees had the opportunity to network with venture capitalists, and accelerators, learn about the latest technology, and attend tech talks. 

These tech talks consisted of thought leaders from the NYC startup ecosystem, including investors with over $5 billion in combined assets under management. Thought leaders spoke on a series of panels focused on the history of the NYC startup ecosystem, its present opportunities, and possible futures

Entrepreneurs had the opportunity to audition to pitch their start-ups on Shark Tank. 

There were many exhibitors at TechDay as well. Companies were from a wide array of industries.

In this video, I walked the event floor to give you a sense of the things happening from networking, connecting, pitching, and learning. 

Additional pictures can be found on Facebook and Instagram.

Thank you to the organizers of TechDay for having me. 

TechDay was a great event.

When marketing and selling a tech product or service, it is important to ask two questions to understand your buyers.

1. What motivates people to buy a tech product or service?

2. How do people find a tech product or service to buy?

I surveyed my LinkedIn audience for answers.

1. What motivates people to buy a tech product or service?

People buy a technology product or service for many reasons.

2. How do people find a tech product or service to buy?

People find and buy technology products or services in different ways.

These findings suggest that businesses must create customer-centric offerings to survive in a competitive marketplace.

Answering these questions will help businesses develop, create, and, position offerings people want to purchase.

What motivates customers to buy your technology products and services?

How do your customers find technology products and services?

There are many exhibits at the New York Auto Show that showcased innovations and technological advances in the automotive industry.  After two days of coverage on the press preview days, I am going to share my favorite product unveils and displays. This year, I also did a video walk through of the show floor to provide an inside look.
