What's good about the location is that we're bringing together people on neutral ground, where we're not highlighting a region, we are highlighting the industry overall.

I've led a stem cell panel here for the last four years. Last year's panel was slanted toward talking about Proposition 71 because everyone wanted to know what is going on in California.

There aren't a lot of companies that are doing the (stem cell) work right now, but the topic is brought up now everywhere by everyone.

We're still in the position in California where we don't have the competitive incentives to offer.

It's a virtual economic development competition here.
