NewWest brings a much needed professional networking venue to Colorado

I attended the NewWest http://www.newwest.net/ launch party Thursday night at the Boulder Museum of Contemporary Art and was thrilled to finally attend a good, popular professional event that had lots of interesting and well-connected people in attendance.

…

The two meetings with such interesting and valuable folk really reinforced how much I miss from my years in the middle of the entrepreneurial whirlwind in Silicon Valley. When I lived in the Valley, not a week would go by without some sort of excellent networking event, whether it was sponsored by a VC firm, an angel network, a startup, a school or an informal networking group. It was an astonishing time and, ultimately, the best part of the entire dotcom experience.

Three years in Colorado and I have not — until this week — seen even a glimmer of this same excitement, the opportunity to socialize and share ideas (and, often, grow partnerships or consulting relationships) with smart, engaged, people.
