Open Coffee summer networking

With the weather seeming to reflect the economic uncertainty, entrepreneurs around Bristol still welcome the relative serenity of The Boston Tea Party’s coffee garden (at least when the sun’s shining).

The storm in the social media teacup was the purchase of Friendfeed by Facebook, however, the discussions last Tues were more around the balance between strategic planning and tactical agility for a start-up.

The perennial topic of funding & finance followed the recent (highly unscientific) poll from Businesszone.co.uk indicated that many businesses aren’t even aware of the Enterprise Finance Guarantee (and those that are don’t seem to be having much luck with it); meanwhile the Regional Development Agency is seeing a return of business confidence in the South West (Economic Review pdf).

Plenty to discuss next Tuesday, 25 Aug from 8.30am in the Boston Tea Party on Park St (the garden if it’s sunny, first floor if is isn’t).
