Since the dawn of high technology, the East Coast of the United States has been the breeding ground for many of the world’s breakthroughs. From Boston to New York City past Washington D.C. down to the North Carolina triangle, Red Herring East spotlights the most innovative companies in the region.

The East Coast’s wide scope, ranging from the most innovative universities and labs to an outstanding startup and spin-off scene, is exemplary. Moreover, the region is home to technology and media leaders, many of the most important players in the financial markets, and capitalizes on a close linkage to government agencies. All this promises to propel the region even further.

Red Herring East is designed as an exclusive mini-marketplace for a selected group of East Coast's ecosystem. The event

• Gathers star entrepreneurs, strategists of large corporations, and investors at a single venue for 2.5 days of the highest editorial content, networking and intelligent discussions
