i'm just throwing these out there... but if I was going to discuss bitcoins with anyone (business or not) I'd probably focus on the mostly legal stuff first
#1 Bitcoin is naturally more attractive to merchants since they won't have to worry about fraud. It might also incur less fees than a credit card would since merchants pay several percent to credit card companies. That right there is pretty awesome.
#2 businesses can accept bitcoins without even "touching them" .
#3 I have to go to work I will finish this later

Haha, very true. I want to play the "credibiltiy" factor up high. I think what may be effective in this regard is letting them draw this conclusion themselves.

Governments will have to ask permission the next time they want tax money from them

If you had 20 minutes to present bitcoin to a room full of professional businesspersons, what would your MAIN POINT be? In otherwords, what would unify your entire talk?
I am a member of the Las Vegas Rotary Club, and next thursday I am slated to give the program. It usually runs 20-25 minutes.
The audience is probably 60% male, 40% female, with an average age of 50 I would say. Many are small business owners, others are lawyers. Most have smartphones. If I say "torrent" or "cryptography" or "peer to peer" I can guarantee they will not be coming to terms with what I'm saying. I will have access to A/V etc..
So, I need your advice on what the main point should be to the presentation, and what sub points you think would be effective. Catch me on here or on #bitcoin-otc.
