55 people attended the first Tech Talk event on July 12! I think everyone was surprised by the number of interested people from various parts of the South Okanagan community. There were entrepreneurs, aspiring entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, students, City Counselors, Government funders, academic representatives, and many other interested people in attendance. One entrepreneur even skipped the Front 9 of his golf game when he saw the meeting at the last minute in the paper.

Check out the photos here.
The next Tech Talk is on Wednesday, August 8th, 2012 at the Penticton Innovation Centre.
