    Happy New Year, Laura!

    I was just thinking about events for 2014-and which ones I’ll try to attend.

    Great timing and great list.

    Thanks!

    Ooooh, Mentoring Roundtable For Entrepreneurs looks quite cool. It’s great that it’s online.

    I’m not looking to pitch, but would be interested in watching. Thanks for sharing info about that.
