First meeting of Northwest Energy Angels group today

I have been talking to people in the region about starting an energy focused angel group for some time. With the help of NWETC: Northwest Energy Technology Collaborative it happened and we had our first meeting today. Standing room only in a room built for 25 people we received 38 RSVPs and over 20 regrets that will come to the next meeting. I gave an overview presentation of what brought me from tech to energy and why everyone in the room should focus on Energy Technology. Here is the presentation: NW Energy Angels 111705.pdf. We had two companies present, Optimum Energy with a set of technologies for reducing chiller energy drain in large buildings and WesTtech Energy with an innovative silent vertical axis home wind turbine. I am quite hopeful that this is the start of something good that we will have meetings every two months. Keep posted for more.
