That's good to hear. The main reason we're hoping to participate is to just get our feet wet and better understand the startup environment. What project did you work on and how is the startup tech environment in Indiana?

Part of the reason we're driving down to Columbus is to see different startup tech areas in the Midwest. I love the area, but Cleveland isn't exactly cutting edge in terms of technology right now.

Bloomington is amazing for it's size. It's a university town with a ton of people focused on UI, usability and programing coming out of IU's School of Informatics. IU also has a great music and business school. The rest of Indiana is certainly behind, but I think Bloomington is starting to take shape as a little tech mecca in the Midwest.
