North Bridge Venture Partners Chistmas Party

Thus far, this holiday season, North Bridge's holiday party last night was the largest and best. It reminded me of holiday parties in Silicon Valley, except North Bridge's was 98% white male. I loved the professional variety of people who attended, however: There were several Microsoft local exec's (including good friend Don Dodge and fellow blogger), IBMers (including Anton Teodorescu, also a blogger), Open Source people, other VC portfolio company exec's, sales and marketing types, attorneys, S1 printers, etc. etc. Lot's of new business discussions, lot's of discussions about management changes among portfolio companies, pre- and post-funding conversations, what's hot, etc. etc.

Net-Net: Really good party.
