“Start-Up America” event scheduled for Georgia Tech on May 2nd

April 28, 2011 By ei2admin

Entrepreneurs are a powerful economic force.  They create jobs, grow businesses, and develop the innovations on which America thrives.  In order to help entrepreneurs thrive, the White House announced the launch of an initiative called “Start-up America”  to celebrate, inspire, and accelerate high-growth
entrepreneurship throughout the nation.

This initiative comes to Georgia Tech on Monday, May 2, 2011.  The event is free and open to the public, but advance registration is required.

The “Startup America: Reducing Barriers” event will be held from 1:00 until 4:30 pm on Monday, May 2 at Georgia Tech’s Global Learning Center, located at 84 Fifth Street, NW, Atlanta, GA 30308-1031.

Administration officials will join local high-growth entrepreneurs to discuss the regulatory reforms, reductions and improvements that could be enacted to help high-growth entrepreneurs grow in our country. 

This event is free of charge, however pre-event registration is required, and space is limited.

Scheduled to participate are: Marie Johns (Deputy Administrator, US Small Business Administration), Michael Fitzpatrick (Associate Administrator, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs), Teresa Rae (Deputy Under Secretary of Commerce for Intellectual Property and Deputy Director of the US Patent and Trademark Office), Ronnie Chatterji (Senior Economist, Council of Economic Advisors) and local leaders.

Again, you must register in advance.  RSVP to reducingbarriers@sba.gov.
