Event Details

We are pleased to invite you to the NYC Entrepreneurs May Feedback Forum. Our special guest is Anil Doshi, founder of introPLAY, a sports and fitness community where users can track workouts in 89 different sports and activities, participate in fantasy sports-like exercise competitions and interact with the wider community at www.introplay.com. Anil is looking for feedback on goal priorities for an early-stage startup. The site recently launched and now faces a series of challenges to build its user base and establish its revenue model: introPLAY has to prioritize its goals between various capital projects given very limited resources (spend money on marketing/PR, additional services, design, etc?). Another key issue is positioning in the marketplace. How does the company balance between positioning among the sports, fitness, weight loss, health and fantasy sports segments? Finally, how does a startup get the attention of larger companies to discuss partnership opportunities? Our host this month is Right Media, and the cost is $5 per person to cover the food and beer. Address: Right Media 2 Park Ave (32nd & 33rd) Floor 4 New York, NY 10016 From Grand Central Station, take the 6 south one stop to 32nd St. You will need to check in with security and get a pass. It has to be used twice, for both the turnstile and the elevator. Call Jonah Keegan with any problems at 212-710-3773. For young entrepreneurs and folks who've "weathered the storms" of the early years, May's gathering should be a great opportunity to share information and help support the NYC startup community. I hope you'll join us! Jonah Keegan Anil Doshi has spanned a number of financial and operational roles at financial services firms and startups. Most recently, he was an analyst at Ahab Capital Management, a hedge fund where he focused on special situation investment opportunities. He also worked at Vencast, a startup that raised capital for private equity and hedge funds, and Donaldson, Lufkin and Jenrette. Anil graduated from Dartmouth with an A.B. in Economics and Government.
