More writing and presenting

Recently published the following articles: for NHBR on the difference between entrepeneurial passion (spirit) and experience, and for Mass High Tech on getting a stimulus package for early stage VC. Interestingly, Kauffman Foundation just issued a report suggesting that the VC industry is overfunded and that it could stand to lose some weight. I would support that view for larger VC fund requiring high minimum investments ($3M+); the capital gap that I seek to address (under $2M first round funding) is, in my view, vastly underfunded and hasn't gotten better given the economy.

Did a few presentations in June--one of my fund's Financing Fast Growth seminars in Springfield MA pulled about 85 and a couple Connecticut Technology Council presentations (New Haven and Hartford.)
