And our competitive advantage is that community.<\/li>\n<li>Part of what makes us what we are is the fact that we stick with the same companies over time. What can we do to enable collaboration across company boundaries?<\/li>\n<li>We cultivate enduring wealth.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>My takeaway from the Q&#038;A was that we&#8217;ve got this huge biz\/developer divide. We have management talent &#8211; but maybe not the big M&#038;A talent that the VC-oriented folks are after. We have loads of developers. We need to make more effort to get those folks connected to one another in a way that makes sense!<\/p>\n<p>We have tons of events that are advertised on calagator.org, and the city is making an effort to make itself a hub (hosting Lunch 2.0, and now this software summit in the City Council Chambers). Overall, I really think the City is doing a great job, and I can&#8217;t wait to see what the citizen initiatives come up with.<\/p>\n<p>So if you want to get involved, subscribe to our lists:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/lists.pdx11.org\/mailman\/listinfo\/pdx11-announce\">http:\/\/lists.pdx11.org\/mailman\/listinfo\/pdx11-announce<\/a> (announce only!)<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/lists.pdx11.org\/mailman\/listinfo\/pdx11-financing\">http:\/\/lists.pdx11.org\/mailman\/listinfo\/pdx11-financing<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/lists.pdx11.org\/mailman\/listinfo\/pdx11-mentoring\">http:\/\/lists.pdx11.org\/mailman\/listinfo\/pdx11-mentoring<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/lists.pdx11.org\/mailman\/listinfo\/pdx11-knowledge\">http:\/\/lists.pdx11.org\/mailman\/listinfo\/pdx11-knowledge<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Find out more at: <a href=\"http:\/\/pdx11.org\">http:\/\/pdx11.org<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>UPDATE<\/strong>: <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bizjournals.com\/portland\/morning_call\/2010\/12\/software-summit-rallies-entrepreneurs.html\">Portland Business Journal coverage!<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/pdxeconomicdevelopment.com\/docs\/software\/Software-Cluster-Presentation-2010-12-02.pdf\">Slides from the City&#8217;s presentation<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.portlandonline.com\/index.cfm?c=28260&#038;a=328959\">Video from Software Summit<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So, the software summit happened this evening.
