BizBash Announces The Most Powerful Events In New York

NEW YORK, N.Y., March 4, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, BizBash released New York's Top 100 Events 2014 list, featuring the most powerful events—from advertising and technology, to fashion, entertainment, sports, and more. BizBash editors determined the events on this list by several factors including economic impact, buzz, innovation, and the event's prominence within the communities it intends to serve.

"New York's event calendar has no shortage of influential gatherings that take place year after year. The landscape is diverse and certainly gives other cities a run for their money when it comes to big names, fund-raising numbers, and press mentions," says BizBash executive editor Anna Sekula. "But it certainly changes, too. The past few years have seen the thriving local tech scene lead to a number of prominent conferences, from Internet Week to the New York Tech Meetup and Wired's BizCon. And there are new entries alongside long-established events, like the Forbes 400 Summit on Philanthropy, the Frieze Art Fair, and Governors Ball Music Festival."
