Don’t Call it a Comeback…

I have had the great joy to post a great many articles in recent weeks announcing money raised for multiple early stage companies in our space. I wanted to put a quick recap for those counting at home. Just perhaps the economy is strengthening and companies are on the beginning of aggressive growth once again. That sounds like good news for all of us…
