Why 1776 Is Coming to New York (http://www.1776.vc/insights/why-1776-is-coming-to-new-york-city/)
------------------------------------------------------------

Rachel Haot, Managing Director, 1776

We’re thrilled to announce that 1776 will expand to New York City with the launch of a new campus in the Brooklyn Navy Yard. With our expansion to the Brooklyn, 1776 will build on New York’s momentum and work to remove the stubborn barriers that hold it back, helping our city reach even greater heights.

New York City’s economy is among the world’s strongest, but we can do better. We have the ingredients for bigger growth: a world-class workforce, thriving tech sector, and dominance in finance, health and other industries. New York City should be leading global innovation in multi-billion-dollar sectors like education, energy, health and finance. But we’re not — yet.
