Facilitator:  Harry Dannenberg

Harry Dannenberg knows how to “bootstrap” a business. During 50 years in footwear manufacturing, wholesale, and retail, he has succeeded by spotting and seizing new opportunities. He joined the family business, then worked at a number of companies in product development, distribution and sales management. He designed products for the U.S. market and contracted factories in Brazil, China, Italy and Spain. He was instrumental in developing and distributing footwear lines for Oscar de la Renta, Caressa, and Bisou Bisou, and owned retail stores in a number of states. Harry didn’t limit himself to shoes, pioneering new distribution models that brought hosiery to drugstores and costume jewelry to shoe stores.

It is that experience that Harry brings to mentoring SCORE NYC clients. He has been a SCORE mentor for 11 years, is a former SCORE NYC chairman, and manages SCORE’s large special events, including many at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center.
