1. The panel will discuss strategies for creating thriving startup ecosystems and densities in cities, drawing from examples of hubs in Chicago, Austin, Moscow, and Washington D.C. 2. A key theme is the importance of central hubs for convening startups and driving activity, though approaches differ between non-profit and for-profit models. 3. Panelists will debate questions around whether density requires physical hubs, how to best curate communities, attracting startups from other cities, and integrating accelerators and investments into hubs.

Crowdfinance redefining wall streetDara Albright

Crowdfinance is the future of capital markets, where financing comes from pooling small amounts of money from many individuals rather than large institutions. It allows citizens to invest in innovations and ideas from other citizens, governed by the same principles that built America initially. While crowdfinancing has progressed from its early stages, the author believes it is headed towards further growth and becoming a mainstream source of financing.Steal This Idea: Ten Smart Ideas for Marketing Your Community

(1) The document discusses the relationship between business, economic functions, and society. It argues that business transactions should be done fairly to benefit all parties and reduce contention. When businesses charge significantly more than their costs, it is unfair to consumers.
(2) Over time, the relationship between business and society has evolved to be more symbiotic and fair. With shareholders invested in companies, both businesses and consumers are dependent on each other for survival.
(3) The document concludes that for businesses to thrive, they must operate for the good of the community, as business and society are inseparable and interdependent. Success depends on a respectful relationship between these entities.Crowdfunding history2
Crowdfunding history2Jenny Kassan

The Crowdfund Act began as a grassroots effort led by Paul Spinrad and Jenny Kassan who petitioned the SEC to allow small crowdfunding exemptions. They received over 150 letters of support and gained backing from organizations like the Small Business & Entrepreneurship Council. In 2011, Congress held hearings on crowdfunding and President Obama voiced his support. That year, the Entrepreneur Access to Capital Act passed the House. Finally, in 2012 President Obama signed the JOBS Act into law, which included the CROWDFUND Act allowing up to $1 million to be raised through crowdfunding intermediaries with limits on individual investments.Crain's New York Business Article (11-2014)

- Many small businesses in New York City have 4 or fewer employees and have seen job growth, but few are expanding into medium or large businesses that create more jobs.
- Some small business owners prefer remaining small to avoid management challenges, while others want help accessing funding to support expansion.
- A think tank is urging the city to provide more assistance to help existing small businesses grow into businesses with 10-20 employees, which could significantly boost the local economy.Craigs List & Social Change

Craigslist is a simple to use online classifieds site that allows local community members to buy, sell, barter, and find services. This stimulates the local private economy and helps reuse goods, reducing waste in landfills. Craigslist also supports non-profits and gives community groups a platform to communicate about issues like recycling. Its ease of use, economic and environmental impacts, and focus on community involvement have contributed to Craigslist's success and positive social influence.From communication to reputation: the critical change in the social media era

The document discusses what would be needed to create exponential cities. It suggests that information and awareness, engaged citizens, continuous equitable distribution of resources, and long and short-term planning would be key. Exponential cities could help address many of the problems cities currently face, such as carbon emissions, homelessness, inequality, and aging infrastructure. Creating the conditions for exponential growth will require bringing together a coalition of public and private partners to implement solutions.Austin Equation

The document discusses Edward Glaeser's analysis in Triumph of the City of issues arising from urban concentration in New York from the late 1700s to present. Glaeser, an economist, is interested in how cities facilitate social and commercial networks important for economic and cultural success. One major concern is problems from poor urban planning like disease spread due to sanitation issues, which can hinder productivity. While sanitation is important for well-being, Glaeser is more interested in urban planning reforms to reduce traffic congestion, which he views as encumbering productivity.Democratic Urbanism & The Healthy City

This document discusses the importance of public participation and democratic urbanism for community health and city planning. It provides examples of how inclusive community engagement processes have led to positive placemaking outcomes, such as transforming derelict areas into active public spaces with gardens and cultural assets. Truly collaborative approaches that involve citizens in decision making from the beginning help address issues of apathy and opposition, build social capital, and create places that reflect community values. In contrast, top-down "smart city" projects and an "orgy of public process" can undermine urban democracy and civic empowerment. When cities leverage culture and citizen ideas, remarkable impacts on people and communities are possible.Top 7 Cities with Best Startup Ecosystems.pdf

Standard human-centered design practices are often well-suited for well-structured problems, but fall short for considering the broader social implications of solutions to well-structured problems and for attempting to address ill-structured or so-called ¡°wicked societal problems¡± (e.g., our broken healthcare system, homelessness, addiction to social media or electronic devices).
Richard will review many of the common characteristics of well-structured, ill-structured, and wicked problems, and, with the workshop attendees, will discuss their implications.
Then, by questioning everything about the standard design process for well-structured problems, Richard will identify common process shortcomings, present examples of projects that ignored such shortcomings as well as of projects that didn¡¯t, and provide attendees with the opportunity to experience ways of how to address such shortcomings.
Attendees will emerge better able to target social impact intentionally and better able to design for achieving that intentional social impact.Studiodrad designhubworkshop-tokyo-140316055155-phpapp01

A New Era for Global Enterprise
By Samuel J. Palmisano March 28, 2014
Photograph by Gallery Stock
Adapted from Re-Think: A Path to the Future
I graduated from college in 1973 and started work at?IBM (IBM) shortly thereafter. At the time, no one talked of a ¡°global economy.¡± The U.S. and other developed countries in Western Europe were dominant¡ªaccounting for about half of global gross domestic product. The term ¡°emerging markets¡± didn¡¯t exist (it wasn¡¯t coined until 1981), primarily because those countries weren¡¯t seen as ¡°emerging.¡± They were poor, many of them saddled with ineffective leaders pursuing misguided policies and with large populations that were then viewed more as a burden than a benefit. They were the ¡°debtor¡± nations. There was little reason to expect the status quo to change.
But it did. Perhaps the most compelling evidence of the change appeared in a Financial Times article published almost exactly 40 years after my graduation from Johns Hopkins University. The article took note of a historic development: ¡°In 2013, for the first time ¡ emerging economies will produce the majority of the world¡¯s goods and services.¡± The article pointed out that the label ¡°emerging¡± will become irrelevant as emerging markets¡¯ share of world output rises to 55 percent by 2018.
I don¡¯t think anyone in 1973 could have predicted this transformation. It certainly would have been unthinkable to me.
To those who knew me as a Baltimore native, who did not make any foreign trips with my parents, did not speak a foreign language, and stayed in the city for college and a first job, my advocacy for a new approach to global business might seem puzzling. Even within IBM, it was more than a decade before any of my work had an international dimension.
But growing up in Baltimore did give me an appreciation for the world beyond America¡¯s
shores. The city has always been home to one of the busiest ports in the U.S. and a hub for international trade. I saw how the port helped give Baltimore¡ªoften thought of as a down-on-its-luck provincial city¡ªenergy and resilience.
Those impressions were reinforced years later when I moved to Tokyo in 1991. While it has little in common with ¡°Charm City¡± (as Baltimore dubbed itself in the mid-1970s), I saw how trade and investment influenced Tokyo; it was becoming more open to people and products from beyond its shores.
My time in Baltimore and Tokyo, coupled with my global travels for IBM, shaped my thinking about the global era we¡¯re in today. I came to see a commitment among political and business leaders in emerging markets to discard past practices in the interest of developing a large middle class. Equally important, I came to see that the best ideas could come from anywhere¡ªand that they often came from outside traditional channels. Every company¡ªindeed, every country¡ªcan fall prey to groupthink, which has a corrosive effect as it stifles the innovative impulse that¡¯s so essential to progress.

- 2. The Panelists Maria Adamian Digital October Moscow Josh Baer Capital Factory Austin Steve Collens 1871 Chicago Donna Harris 1776 Washington, DC Moderator
- 3. ¡°The problem is not that most towns kill startups. It's that death is the default for startups, and most towns don't save them. Instead of thinking of most places as being sprayed with startupicide, it's more accurate to think of startups as all being poisoned, and a few places being sprayed with the antidote. Startups in other places are just doing what startups naturally do: fail. The real question is: what's saving startups in places like Silicon Valley?¡± Paul Graham
- 4. It seems like the mayor of every city in the world has proclaimed that their city will be the "next Silicon Valley." Leaders in these cities are accepting these challenges and striving to create vibrant startup ecosystems - with mixed results. From Moscow to Austin, find out what is actually working. The primary theme of the discussion will be the importance of density - particularly central hubs for convening and curating activity. Learn about what's common and different among the strategies and tactics pursued by 1871 in Chicago, Capital Factory in Austin, Digital October in Moscow, and 1776 in DC. The Discussion
- 5. 1. Can you create density for your ecosystem without building a hub? 2. Should you curate your community or strive for inclusion? 3. Can you build your community by luring startups and talent from other cities? 4. Should hubs integrate accelerators and equity investments? 5. Should startup hubs be for-profit or non-profit?
