Web 2.0 Expo – New York, USA

Javits Convention Center
New York City, NY, USA

Web 2.0 Expo, co-produced by O’Reilly Media and TechWeb, shows more of Web 2.0 business models, development paradigms and design strategies for the builders of the next generation Web. This annual multi track conference brings together people, ideas, connections, contacts, products and companies to foster stronger Web 2.0 communities. Web 2.0 Expo events occur in San Francisco and New York and influential presentations and speakers, detailed workshops, a start-up program launch platform, an Expo show floor, a Web2Open unconference and rich networking events.

The Web continues to be an engine for economic growth, fueled by a series of new business models, development models and design patterns that collectively fall under the umbrella of Web 2.0, a term coined at the birth of the Web 2.0 Summit (formerly named Web 2.0 Conference), a joint venture between O’Reilly and TechWeb.

To meet the growing demand for Web 2.0 comprehension and skills, and build a broader community of Web 2.0, O’Reilly Media and TechWeb launches first Web 2.0 Expo in April 2007 in San Francisco. That was the first conference and exhibition of the rapidly growing ranks of designers and developers, product managers, entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, marketers and business strategists who are embracing the opportunities created by Web 2.0 technologies.
Program Information

The program at the Web 2.0 Expo will feature experts, leaders, and innovators under the radar, and in the spirit of Web 2.0, there will be ample opportunity for attendees to connect, contribute and collaborate. Web 2.0 Expo is a place for creativity, engineering and innovation, focusing on four conversations:

* Education: A tested, the conference program and consistently to maximize the exchange of knowledge and expertise around creating the next generation network
* Fair: a floor of traditional fair of the introduction of the builders of the Web to providers of tools, technology, services and infrastructure
* Networking: a meeting face to promote business development facing entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, associations, and hiring

The power not only means doing less with less staff and a smaller budget. This means that the constraints on the creativity of unity, whether in business models, design paradigms, or platforms. This means that the power of the small screen, the thin client, streamlined interface. It could mean the power of small teams, or even go solo. It is also the paradox of power: sometimes the best way to gain power is to give them away, so that during these difficult times, we are learning that nothing builds brands as a community nourished. It is also the power of data: data centric business models, and the power of data to inform our decisions and focus on what matters to us.

Speaking of that matters, we are also talking about the power of less bureaucracy, less turnover and break the silos. We are the industry that has shown that transparency, participation, collaboration in addition to greater efficiency. The less power is the power of creative destruction. It is the power to change the world.
