There were 250 exhibitors lining the expo floors, including restaurants and gourmet food trucks giving out samples. The plants by Creative Plant Rentals and balloons by Cloud Nine Balloons definitely made the environment festive!

The event featured 2 networking lounges - people were shmoozing up a storm. Buena Vista Furniture brought most of their showroom to the Orange Lounge in Building 12 - which provided beautiful and comfortable seating. The Orange County Entrepreneur Community lounge, in Building 10, was near a cool bar, tended by the wonderful people at Ovations, the catering company at the OC Fair & Events Center.

Thanks so much to Smart Levels for the awesome business referral directory, which had all the contact information of participating exhibitors and some great looking ads.
