SUNY Polytechnic Institute, the Siena Research Institute, and the New York BizLab are proud to present Disrupt 2017 – TechDownload: Future Technologies; an event that offers participants an opportunity to deepen their connection to key decision makers and the Capital Region’s movers and shakers in tech and the startup community.

In this event, companies of all sizes and stages will weigh in on how disruptive technologies are shaking up markets across multiple industry sectors. Learn about how different organizations position themselves to adapt to rapidly changing markets, and what they consider their key to competitiveness–from the startup all the way up to the Fortune 500 company.

Students participating in the 8th annual New York State Business Plan Competition (NYBPC) are invited to attend, as the topics discussed provide an educational opportunity for entrepreneurial students pursuing their ventures through the business plan competition. This event also provides an opportunity for students, investors and industry partners to network and trade ideas prior to the NYBPC on April 28, 2017. The networking reception will be open to all Disrupt and NYBPC participants.
