I'm looking to gather a list of NY technology and education conferences. Do you know if there is a master list? If not, can you help me build a list? Please post your favorite New York educational/technology conferences and your reason for attending. Thanks for your help.
Christine,
Here are a few I might suggest...
ASSET - usually in March
NYSCATE - Usually in November (they also have a metro conference and leadership summit)
SCOPE
Long Island Technology Summit - Oct 28
Email me directly if you need additional help.

That's all I have time for for now but I'll keep adding. I'd love to hear about some others that have been attended. IMHO for those new to acronyms is "In My Humble Opinion".
Thanks for starting this up, Christine! Maybe there's a place for peer review after the list is put together :)
