ISOC-DC Meeting - New Business Models for the New Net
ISOC-DC Meeting - New Business Models for the New Net
Nov 16 2009 6:30pm-8pm
Location
ICC Auditorium Georgetown University, 37th & O Streets, NW
Access
This event has been marked as open to the public.
Description
One-to-one communication – email – dominated the early Internet. Web technology issued in a new Net era of one-to-many communication, where a single Web server could broadcast information to millions. Now as the next-generation or “New” Net unfolds, users around the world are tapping into many sources and platforms – social media, vast databases, cloud computing, intricate mobile devices, storage systems, Web 2.0 – to collaborate many-to-many, creating entirely new Net-based entities.

But can you make money that way?

Join us for an informal, lively conversation on the new business models arising on the next-generation Net and whether these models will finally begin to generate the revenue so many Net investors have predicted for so long.

Leading the discussion:

* Kurt Baumann, CEO, 3Sixty Enterprises, www.3SixtyWeb.com, and former Angel/Venture
* Mark Potts, CEO and co-founder, Growthspur, www.growthspur.com
* David Johnson, Senior Resident Fellow and expert on the law of electronic commerce, Center for Democracy and Technology, www.cdt.org
* Wesley Kaplow, VP, Network Solutions and CTO, Polar Star Consulting, www.polarstarconsulting.com

Graeme Browning, author of 'Electronic Democracy: Using the Internet to Transform American Politics,' and member of ISOC-DC's governing Council, will moderate.

Open to the public, no charge.
