I hope you’ve all recovered from San Diego Startup Week. I still feel like I’m riding the momentum. Check out the recap here. 

I had a great time with founders, funders, and technical leaders in Santa Barbara last week. Who else should I know in SB to connect our communities? More of these to come!

This week a few of us local early stage investors are speaking at UCSD. Come listen to us chat about what we look for in investable teams and building a VC firm. Join us Nov 9 at 5pm.

And lastly we’re excited to get us all together for the upcoming Fresh Brewed Tech Live Holiday Party - Tech The Halls! Food, Drinks, DJ, Tech Raffle, and more.
Let me know by replying to this newsletter if you want to exhibit in front of 100+ tech community members. December 9 from 5:30-9pm.
Cheers!
