Experience Stern | News & Events

Excerpt from Poets & Quants -- "Having worked in a smaller and more nascent start-up ecosystem in Bangkok, I often did not have the benefit of learning from the experiences of peers who have simply had the opportunity to do it before. I wanted to be put in close quarters with teams that I can get to know and learn from. Stern offers exactly that through experiential learning courses like Tech and the City, but also access to a network of entrepreneurs in the city area."

Excerpt from Kanka News -- (Translated from Chinese using Google Translate) "White said that although WeWork's poor performance in the first half of this year was a loss of 900 million US dollars, the joint office model itself has great appeal to SMEs, and WeWork, which is a leading company in this field, still has bright prospects."

Excerpt from Knowledge@Wharton -- "The key here is the desirability of the location, which is true -- it's still very much alive and it creates a lot of competition amongst retailers to get to these highly desirable spots that, in turn, drive the rent high up. But the issue here is the marketing strategy that a lot of these retailers are applying... The gap is between having foot traffic and having activations that actually convert the desirability to purchases. I think this is where a lot of these retailers miss out and this is why we see such a high turnover even on Madison Avenue."

'This is a war of burning money, especially at the beginning. Disney will lose a lot of time at the beginning, because there will be a lot of upfront investment. The accumulation of consumers will be relatively slow, and users will not start to flock.'"

Excerpt from Fox Business -- "'I think we've passed the tipping point of negative publicity on Facebook,' said Arun Sundararajan, a professor at New York University’s Stern School of Business.

As the antitrust cases against Facebook pick up steam, they are likely to become the primary investor focus.'"
