Discussion | 2014 Campaign Roundtables: The NYS Governor and State Senate Races


The winner was never in doubt. But the seemingly comfortable victory margin belied the drama that took place along the way. The governor's race had more surprises than anyone would have imagined: the Moreland bombshell, Zephyr Teachout's robust primary showing, and RGA Chair Chris Christie’s snub of Rob Astorino. What does this election tell us about the state of politics in New York? What does it portend for the next few years in Albany? And does it tell us anything about Cuomo's prospects in a potential presidential bid? With: - Kate Albright-Hanna, Teachout communications director - Alexis Grenell, City & State - Peter Kauffmann, senior advisor to the NYS Democratic Committee - Michael Lawler, Astorino campaign manager - Brian Murphy, CUNY Baruch College - William O'Reilly, Astorino consultant - Jessica Proud, Astorino spokesperson - Zephyr Teachout, Democratic primary candidate - Matt Wing, Cuomo communications director - Moderator: Rob George, The New York Post

Discussion | Re-Programming Mobility: What Do Smart Phones and Self-Driving Cars Mean for Future Cities?


For decades, transportation experts have anticipated a sweeping technological transformation of the way Americans travel, and the transportation system they use to do so. That transformation has arrived at all scales – from individual trip planning to the design and management of regional mass transit systems. But, in a distinct shift from the last 50 years, when transportation innovation in the United States was shaped by big public infrastructure projects like the Interstate Highway System, this transformation is being driven by the private sector. Silicon Valley has set its sights on the transportation system as its next big opportunity, and its first moves have triggered conflicts with regulators at every level of government. But how will this historic surge of investment and invention into the transportation sector impact existing infrastructure and land use patterns, travel behaviors, regulatory frameworks and financing structures, and the practice of transportation planning and management? This symposium will explore the recently published report, Re-Programming Mobility: The Digital Transformation of Transportation in the United States. Key questions include: -What new technologies and services will have the broadest impact on mobility? -How might new mobility technologies and services impact land use patterns? -What kinds of organizational changes will transportation regulators, funding agencies, and planning institutions need to begin preparing for now, and what kinds of skills and practices will transportation planners need in the future? Panelists: Stacey Hodge, New York City Department of Transportation; Greg Lindsay, Visiting Scholar, Rudin Center; Benjamin De La Peña, John S. and James L. Knight Foundation.

Greenwich Village is among Manhattan's most desirable and expensive residential neighborhoods. It's history, however, betrays it's monied status.

From the Beats to the Folk Movement, from workers rights to gay rights, the Village has often been the center of it all.

Discussion | Music Business Now: How Music Makes Money


An evening panel presentation of industry professionals discussing how music makes money now. Since the advent of digitized music, the methods of making, using and delivering music have grown exponentially. As a result, many royalty revenue streams and creative ways of monetizing music have emerged. The ways in which music is now marketed, bundled, downloaded, streamed, and otherwise used have resulted in many opportunities and challenges, and have kept legislation and business practices moving at an accelerated pace to keep up. Payments have changed considerably since the heyday of record royalties, making it more important than ever to understand how the new licensing, financing and payment models affect the income of music creators. Panelists: Hayley Rosenblum: Music Community Manager, Kickstarter Bill Stafford: Co-Founder, Missing Link Music Publisher Chris Tuthill: Director of Touring and Artist Development, TCI Barry Heyman, Esq: Entertainment Lawyer, Heyman Law Moderator: Michelle Bogre, Esq.
