Earlier this week at TechPoint’s Innovation Summit at the Indianapolis Convention Center, I was again awed and inspired by the entrepreneurial spirit and innovative minds that abound in Indiana.

As a longtime supporter of TechPoint, an organization founded to advance entrepreneurship and Indiana’s high-tech economy, I am always impressed by the continued growth of the tech community, and happy to see so many familiar faces that I’ve gotten to know as both friends and clients who run some pretty amazing companies.

What an honor it is to operate my own business, CARMEN Commercial Real Estate Services, among the likes of Slingshot SEO, Compendium, Interactive Intelligence (all presenters at the Summit) and the many, many more successful businesses that have been launched and thrive here in Indianapolis.

One presentation I was particularly impressed with was that of keynote speaker Michael Stelzner, founder of Social Media Examiner.
