"Presenting at the Golden Startup Coffee was a terrific experience. The questions and nudges from the audience were invaluable. In fact, I may slightly tweak the design of my product as a result. Furthermore, members of the audience suggested niche markets for my products that I have not previously considered. And after my presentation I connected with several members who I think can help move my business forward. Overall, this has been a terrific experience."
