Yep.... early seeds planted. I met online with them to discuss membership, and gently pointed out they should attend APAX, and that sponsorship there creates real visibility to the membership (and that Vivaticket sponsor, but don't have ticketing exclusively!) I'll note for Vicki re potential sponsor, and make sure I connect with them in person as well.
