What began humbly back in 2011 as Northside Ideas has since grown into the biggest meeting of the most creative and innovative minds in business and technology. New York City’s entrepreneurs are leading a nationwide shift in the way companies are built and grow, and the NExT Conference is your opportunity to see them all in your proverbial backyard. We’ve tapped some of the biggest names in technology and business to speak at the NExT Conference. Stay tuned for the 2013 speaker lineup. We’ll be engaging these innovators (and many, many more) in discussions and panels at Brooklyn Bowl, the Wythe Hotel and Brooklyn Brewery. Plus, NExT will be hosting networking events and workshops over the two days to help connect the city’s established business leaders with tomorrow’s upstart innovators. As we get closer to June, we’ll post a comprehensive schedule so you don’t miss anything that NExT has to offer (there’s a lot).

This year, NExT is hosting a totally free trade show called the NExT Expo, a showcase of  some of the most exciting companies and start-ups from around the city. The NExT Expo will host special programming, a job fair to connect young engineers and executives to local tech opportunities, and hundreds of companies showcasing their solutions and innovations. The NExT Expo will take place on Thursday, June 13 and Friday, June 14 at McCarren Park (Bedford and N. 12th, right next to the tennis courts), and we mentioned it’s free, right? That means no admission fee and no badge required. Click here to RSVP.
