Open Coffee, CoWorking & networking across Bristol

Posted on by

OpenCoffee Bristol takes place tomorrow morning, 20 April from about 8.30 in The Boston Teaparty on Park St. Unfortunately I can’t make it this time but I’m sure plenty of regulars will welcome the new folks that have been joining recently.

We’re also getting a bit of friendly cross-promotion from @CoWorkingWest on Twitter where Lee Cottier is flying the standard for start-ups and freelancers organising Jelly co-working venues (Working for yourself, not by yourself).

I also had a great evening with the South West Founders meet-up and hope to be building some cross-connections there also.

OpenCoffee Christmas

Posted on by

The next OpenCoffee Bristol will be on Tues, 2 Dec from 8.30am in Starbucks on Park St as usual, it’ll be the last until the New Year when I suggest we start again on Tues, 13 Jan (I’ll send a reminder around before then).

Everyone’s busy working through the Chancellor’s Pre-Budget Report (or mini-budget announcement depending on your view). With changes to VAT, small business lending, income taxes, fuel duties and more, there’s plenty to digest.

Amongst this continuing turmoil Startupslive.co.uk are celebrating new businesses in Jury’s Inn on Tues, 9 Dec and the Pervasive Media Studio is launching their Sandbox funding competition on Mon, 15 Dec. Proof, if proof were needed, that innovation and innovative business is alive and doing ok in tough times here in Bristol.

I look forward to seeing you on Tues, 2 Dec from 8.30am in Starbucks on Park St, or at other events around Bristol and wish you a peaceful Christmas and holidays.
