Yesterday was a full day of presentations by local companies looking for Angel Investor money for their new enterprises. A full 28 presentations were made encompassing a broad range of ideas from new Nail Salon concepts to ways to help carpoolers and comuters. I personally was very excited about the new women's golf clothing line called Grace and Game. Look for these new looks at http://www.graceandgame.com/ Another reason to go golfing is to wear these cute outfits!
And as always, at these events, I had the opportunity to hear a great keynote speaker as well as meet some interesting people. Glen Hiemstra, Founder and Owner of Futurist.com had some very intersting comments about where our culture and society are going (think aging population).
I look forward to seeing how these companies grow, change and manage in the current economic environment we're in. There is no doubt that Seattle is a great place for those who wish to develop and start new companies and ventures.
As a Northwest native, I love all that Seattle has to offer. The energy of the region is contagious. Seattle, like other great cities of the world, has distinct neighborhoods whose vibe is apparent even to a casual visitor. Seattle is known as the coffee capital of the world, and Washington wines have gained international attention. As a coffee and wine lover, I love sampling new coffees and visiting Washington wineries. Welcome to my blog. Thanks for the chance to share some of my Seattle!
