The importance of community

Surrounding yourself with who’s right

It’s been three weeks of madness, but the good kind. Event after event, connection after connection, all following Covid-19 rules of course.

After each event, I received messages of thanks and congratulations on a job well done. Those attending were thrilled with what existed, and what was being created.

We welcomed newbies and veterans to each event, the old guard sharing what’s been going on and the fresh arrivals listening intently whilst offering their own contributions.

Despite each group being very different, as I’ll explain more now, the theme was the same. Community and its importance.

As Entrepreneurs

One of the first events was to connect and support entrepreneurs. Running a business isn’t easy, your mind is constantly awash with what you need to do. Then add into the mix doing it in another country, with a language that isn’t exactly the easiest to learn, and you’ve added some complexity.

That’s what this community aims to remove. Those that have been here a while, been there, done that, got the t-shirt, have broken barriers that existed before and set new expectations for those due to come. That’s just dealing with the bureaucracy.
