Today's business owner is made from different thread. While you and I had parents who taught us to dress up when flying, going to chruch, and good school clothes--the generation behind us were taught it isn't so much how you look as what you feel. Echoing your comments, you are never wrong going business casual, but then again if the entire social network with-in your circle of contacts is wearing T-Shirts, Shorts and Flipflops then go with the flow. <a href="http://www.northwestdisplays.com" rel="nofollow">Ed Bejarana</a> Hi Tim,

Having come from the Semi-Conductor world, I too am use to dressing UP for conventions, tradeshows, and networking events–but then again that was during the glory days of SemiCon and Comdex.

Today’s business owner is made from different thread. While you and I had parents who taught us to dress up when flying, going to chruch, and good school clothes–the generation behind us were taught it isn’t so much how you look as what you feel.

Echoing your comments, you are never wrong going business casual, but then again if the entire social network with-in your circle of contacts is wearing T-Shirts, Shorts and Flipflops then go with the flow.
