Slow it down at the Slow Living Summit, June 1 - 3

If you're thinking that life (and money) in the fast lane is going too fast, then slow it down! 
 
The Slow Living Summit is coming to Brattleboro, Vermont June 1 - 3.  This event is a 2 1/2 day exploration to bring people from all over New England together to discuss ways to build healthy, thriving local economies while encouraging, mentoring and supporting a new generation of activists, entrepreneurs and engaged citizens.  
 
Hard to  imagine any of us slowing down long enough to sit for an hour, let alone 3 days - and talking about how to "slow down" to boot!  I'll be there along with fellow funders Chris Sikes (Western Massachusetts Enterprise Fund), Ryan Torres (Vermont Community Foundation), John Hamilton (Vested for Growth, NH Loan Fund) and Michael Gurau (Clear Venture Partners, Maine).  The topic?  Building a resilient New England and where can entrepreneurs go to find the money.  
 
So check out the Summit schedule at Slow Living Summit page and take time to "slow down" this June.
