Huntington Beach, CAI spent a few days in Orange County, California last week visiting two business clients and a few angel investor groups.  The trip was fantastic - with promising news.

It is amazing to me how private equity firms in certain geographic regions are still healthy and looking for early-stage investment opportunities.  While many angel investment groups in the Midwest seemed to have frozen in the current economy, groups from other regions of the country and world are clearly still making investments.  This is good news for emerging and innovative businesses. 

The key is knowing where to look.
