Digest #232
This week is packed with events, including the Santa Cruz New Tech Meetup, MBEP's Regional Economic Summit, the Mini Maker Faire, 82% Micro Business Summit, and more. Check our Events section below or check events on our website. If you don't see a digest next week, it's because I was too busy going to events. Just sayin'.
