The progress and innovation of forward-thinking businesses is building Boston’s New Economy — challenging tradition across the city’s ever-evolving landscape and changing the face of education and the workplace, begging the questions:

How will Boston’s education systems and workforce adapt as tradition gives way to innovation?

What can be done to keep many of the 152,000 students in Boston, working in Boston?

Can Boston remain a leader for education in the face of a changing education model?

On April 30th, top influencers will weigh in on educating for the New Economy at Boston UpFront.BostInno is producing an all-encompassing showcase giving event attendees the 360-degree view of what’s next for Boston.

Three short films featuring Boston’s best and brightest including Anand Chopra-McGowan, Director of Business Development, General Assembly; Len Schlesinger, Baker Foundation Professor at Harvard Business School; Bill Aulet, Senior Lecturer & MD, Martin Trust Center for MIT Entrepreneurship; and Gordon Jones, Managing Director, Harvard Innovation Lab; will examine what’s next for Boston. 

The 45-minute showcase explores who the leaders of the New Economy are, how education and the workplace are changing in light of new business, and what challenges and opportunities lie ahead for the city’s infrastructure and policies.

In tandem, we’re honoring young Boston-area alumni who are influencing the New Economy with the first-ever Alumni Impact Awards. Nominations are open now.

We’re bringing it all to Space 57 on April 30th. Be in the room and get your early bird tickets now.
