The startup and entrepreneurial community is growing in Dallas. Over the past two years, there has been a convergence of intellect and opportunity. Chance encounters can lead to a really good idea or even to a business partner.

I have lots of ingenious friends in the startup community. I love hearing about their latest ideas and ventures. It is as if a well of ideas has sprung forth in Dallas.  I, myself, see Dallas as becoming a center for intellect, technology and prominence in this arena.

Marsh and I have been attending the monthly Startup Happy Hour 2.0.  Previously held at Cohabitat, it has been moved to Architel off 75 Central in Dallas.  Startup Happy Hour is sponsored by Architel, Big in Japan, Startup Lawyer, Launch DFW and Cohabitat.  Co-founded by Alexander Muse, Startup Happy Hour has been a great venue for speakers, parties, drink and friends.

I’ve made some great and enduring friendships here and have made business acquaintances which may flourish as time comes.  I urge everyone to make at least one Startup Happy Hour.  It may change your life.
