The stars were out last night in Encino, but I�m still looking for that power lunch invite.
The mixer was held at Meridian partner Access Networks. There was lots of food. And drink. And there were SEs here and there but demos weren�t really on with all of the chatter and noise from clinking ice cubes. The penthouse patio has a 270 degree view of the mountain ranges north of LA. The skies were clear and it was a balmy evening.
Some would claim the SEs were the stars. I�d say it was the Meridian cast on hand. I enjoyed warm and friendly conversations with Bob Stuart, Tim Ireland (CEO), John Buchanon (Sales Director) and Ken Forsyth (Product Director). I am dropping names here.

They said they�d kill me if I told anyone there is more product coming in this year�s pipeline! We should stay tuned. We could also ask pointed questions at the remaining two events in the US and all of those upcoming in the UK.

I�ve been a Meridian customer since 1981. I�m brand loyal and very encouraged about Meridian�s product development and marketing. They have assembled a high quality management team and are on a roll. I�m glad to be watching and able to enjoy it all.
