WHY YOU SHOULD ATTEND
We are living in a US economy where more than two million jobs were lost and where consumer spending has fallen more than 3% annually. Even worse, according to some CEOs, the economy has not been this badly off in the last 43 years.
What steps are business leaders in Silicon Valley taking to make sure that their enterprises not only don't go under, but also thrive in these harsh times?
Do they encourage worst-case scenario thinking or suggest a continued feeling of optimism- after all, every recession has an end.
Is there a new reality that companies have to face and do they have to reset their priorities accordingly?
Is it time to invent new products or technologies, or do you improve what worked in the past?
