(just kidding, it's free anyway)
Recently, there has been a tremendous explosion in the amount of innovation and investment in the social shopping, flash sale, group sale, local discount space. People want free/cheap high quality stuff, and venture firms are all too happy to back their shopping addictions.
We'll talk about what this means for online retail, major brands, and new entrants into the space. Have all of the opportunities been picked over or are we just in the first inning of shopping 2.0 (3.0?) ?
Join the following conversation leaders for our community discussion:
Josh Kopelman - First Round Capital (backed One Kings Lane, Bigdeal, Bazaarvoice), founder of Half.com
Drew Patterson - CEO, Jetsetter
Jenny Fleiss - President, Rent The Runway
