It was a standing-room-only crowd yesterday at the OC Business Growth Forum hosted by the Digital Media Center in Santa Ana.

My keynote may have surprised the local politicians in the audience: "Relocation Recommendations: Where to Find the Money", but not those of you who listened to Liddy Karter talk about her efforts to influence public policy for angel investors.

I shared the highlights from Liddy's remarks, so we'll see if these entrepreneurs in attendance pack off for Honolulu or Milwaukee to find more welcoming tax policies and therefore more investment dollars.
