Seattle’s Top Innovators Unveiled

Seattle Business Monthly released a list of their top innovators in Seattle. I was most interested in the high number of “Darren”s on the list. involved in 3 of the top 25…not bad odds considering it’s only the 512th ranked first name. Apparantly somebody forgot about my mad innovation skillz, or is this just some foreshadowing perhaps??

And congrats to Vanessa! Score one for SEARCH.
