Coventry OpenCoffeeClub
So the 7th June is the inaugural Coventry OpenCoffeeClub meeting at the Coventry StarBucks. Anybody that thinks this might be of interest to them is welcome to come.
The OpenCoffee Club was started to encourage entrepreneurs, developers and investors to organise real-world informal meetups to chat, network and grow. (From the OpenCoffeeClub Site)
Coventry is a great place to do business (I am one of the Coventry Ambassadors) and has a huge number of entrepreneurs thanks to some of the excellent schemes being put in place, by AWM, the council and the two university science parks - my only slight issue is the lack of decent office space at present for those graduating from some of the great start-up accomodation offered by the science parks. However, the council already has this in the pipeline its just a case of waiting!
So if you are interested in business, entrepreneurship or just coffee - please pop along meet some great people and you never know you might just meet a future (business) partner!

Looks a great idea, I wish there was something similar where I’m based - tends to be slightly stuffier with cheese and biscuits in the town hall!

Brilliant to finally see one close to where I live. Unfortunately I have something planned for tomorrow evening (I’ve only just found out about this coffee club). I hope to pop along at some stage in the future!!

Is the plan to meetup weekly?!

I will let you know. This is the first one so will sound it out with the people going. I think it will realistically be every couple of weeks.
