Well, it's our last newsletter of the year. Hard to believe we only started this 6 months ago, but we've learned a lot and we hope you did too. With 2020 on our minds, we want to make sure we continue to shine a light on the Orange County tech and startup community. What would you like to see more of? What would make you share this with others so we reach a wider audience?

Going into 2020, there are several interesting trends to watch. For example, the continued density increase in Irvine, including the new Cove space and Octane soon-to-be-moving into the area. We'll also keep spotlighting new community resources, like the new  OC4 Ventures Studio  as well as how our Opportunity Zones begin to develop. What are you looking forward to in 2020?

Here's to warm and happy holidays to you and your families!
Cheers,
