Introduction
With the proposed changes made by Scott to the NYTech community, there is a vacuum of what NY Tech Meetup should do going forward. Scott made a proposal, and is asking for nominations and platforms from prospective candidates. The following are my ideas on these issues and this manifesto is casting about for thoughts and opinions. I ask for people's input and feedback on it to help create and discuss what should be NYTM 2.0. Just send me an email and I will make you an author on the google Doc.
Summary of Points
- NYTM Leadership
- More than one leader for the group - each member possessing various strengths, like a small executive board like Stanford's Council of Presidents or co-Organizers
- Staffing could include:
- facilitator - think project manager who ensures community rules are maintained
- producer(s) - running the events and ensures positive flow of event
- ambassador(s) - providing liaison between business leaders, political leaders, and finance people
- mentor(s)
- NYTM Monthly Event
- Presenters chosen from three channels, number of presentations between five and seven
- Other NY Tech group leaders - they sponsor a startup and present them on stage
- NYTM Community choses the following month's presenters - NTYM team provides listing of best
- VCs and/or angels can sponsor companies to present on stage
- Announcements between presentations
- Requests must be made a day before the event, must be for staffing, event announcements, and other constraints TBD
- Grassroots Publicity
- Members of the NYTM community can get a discount for future events for quality publishings of companies that present
- Will get "credit" for postings within a specific timeframe and of size and content
- Must be tagged in some fashion to get visibility (e.g. #nytech or #nytm)
- NYTM Steering Community
- Monthly meetings from members of the NYTM community to help in submitting ideas for future direction of NYTM
- Leveraging the enthusiasm and ideas that came from the Oct 20th meeting
