Business and Culture Collide at New York’s TNW Conference

Tech entrepreneurs, investors and journalists will descend onto Wall Street this Wednesday for the annual U.S. installment of The Next Web Conference.

The theme of the event is “Where business and culture collide,” and the keynote speakers will tackle a variety of topics, ranging from management strategy, big data, marketing and more.

Of course, a tech conference would be nothing if it didn’t have hopeful entrepreneurs and startup founders pitching their products and technology, so 48 companies hand-picked by The Next Web will be showcased in “Boost,” a program dedicated to accelerating startups.

The team at The Next Web will be trying to squeeze a lot of content into one day, so here’s a list of a few notable speakers:

Neil Blumenthal, Co-founder and Co-CEO of Warby Parker

John Collison,President and Co-founder of Stripe

Jon Oringer, Founder and CEO of Shutterstock

Scott Belsky, Founder of Behance

Kevin Hale, Partner at Y Combinator

Marvin Liao, Partner at 500 Startups
