    Very informative and took some good mental notes from William Arruda about branding and how you need to "extract, express and exude" your business brand. Exude and genuinely promote your business to greater heights. Found free parking again, met nice people, took some pictures, enjoyed my Sam Adams drinks. Nice evening.
