Trade Association Seeing More Unemployed at Meetings

I work for NYSIA, the New York Software Industry Association, which holds educational and networking meetings 3-4 times per month. In the last few months, the meetings have actually grown, but the percentage of unemployed people, many from outside the industry, is much, much higher -- maybe 50% at some meetings. I am seeing a lot of ex-Wall Street types who now want to start their own tech businesses.
