Hi all,

Mark Jung has offered to come talk to us in the venture studio on Thurs Jul 19th from 5pm-6pm but CES wants to gauge interest to make sure enough people will be around to attend.  He is willing to talk about product-market fit, raising capital, team formation, pretty much anything... so if you'd be interested in attending please let me know (1) that you can make it, and (2) what topic you'd be most interested in discussing.  

Please let me know asap as he's trying to work out his schedule.

Thanks

Katie
