For the second year in a row, PKPR managed publicity for Time Inc’s 10 NYC Startups To Watch, which has quickly become one of the flagship annual events of Internet Week New York. TechCrunch called it a “pretty badass party” and New York Observer’s BetaBeat named it one one of the “ten must-see events of Internet Week.”
More than 50 journalists attended the event, filing on-the-scene stories featuring interviews with founders of Codecademy, Artsy, Fab, Stamped, and the other honored startups. Highlights of the coverage included a TechCrunch TV segment, in depth stories in Adweek, Fox Business, WNET’s MetroFocus, and Portfolio, and a slideshow on PCMag.com profiling each of the startups.
