Located in the Silicon Valley, he coordinates the activities for the original angel investors, the Band of Angels. Imagine the stories Ian Sobieski can tell!

And the whole world wants to know! Ian hosts interested parties from the world-over as anyone who's interested tours the Valley.

Since it's year-end, we'll hear just what kind of the year the Band enjoyed in 2007. Without ruining the punchline, if you're an investor you'll wish you were in the Band. Ian, as you might expect, has great advice for investors and entrepreneurs.

He's intelligent, articulate and handsome; you'll love him, you'll hate him. Here's a great interview to celebrate your year-end.

Travel & Leisure magazine and Money magazine both handed kudos for really cheap international airfares to Bill's portfolio company cFares.com. That's what got Bill and I thinking that it was time for a podcast. Garage Technology Ventures was a pioneer in the Valley and we discuss its impact both before and after the bubble.

Bill sits on the board of TCA portfolio company Vigilistics. Bill and his partner Guy have a long history of investing alongside the Tech Coast Angels, so when Bill offers some advice for angel investors, he knows what he's talking about.
