Plans are coming together for the BC Innovation Council's Connect '09 conference on October 19th at the Sheraton Wall Centre Hotel. Tagged as BCIC’s premier event for technology start-ups and innovators, the keynote by hometown Tech Entrepreneur Leonard Brody of NowPublic won't disappoint and the recently announced panel lineup looks great as well.
Upon registration, attendees are given the choice of four different panels to attend and the choice should be pretty obvious based on the stage of their startup or business interests. The panels and speakers are as follows:
Get Fundable: Access to capital in the current economic climate

Friends in High Places: Leveraging partnerships to accelerate growth
The Design Imperative: Optimizing commercialization through product design
If you're interested in attending, save $10 off the $50 ticket price by registering online before August 28th.
