Introduced in 1998, SI Conference provides a framework for business and civic leaders from Staten Island and around the region to devote their experience and insight to a discussion of the state of the Staten Island economy, and to devise strategies to continually improve the Borough's economic situation.

 

The Conference features a full-day of keynote speaking presentations, technical assistance seminars, panel discussions, and business-to-business vending among the thousands that attend each year.

This past year’s 10^th Anniversary SI Conference featured over 2,500 attendees, 125 vendors, 20 sponsors, two dozen seminars, and the first ever “20 under 40” Awards Ceremony, honoring young leaders in the Staten Island community.

Previous SI Conference keynote speakers have included Mayor Michael Bloomberg, Borough President James P. Molinaro, Randy Levine, President of the New York Yankees, Howard Rubenstein of Howard Rubenstein and Associates, Greg David, Editor of Crain’s NY Business, Barbara Corcoran of the Corcoran Group, and Vernon Hill of Commerce Bank.
