http://www.pledgebank.com/LondonInventors Comments on 'organise a central London Inventors Meetup' en-gb team@pledgebank.com hourly 2 1901-01-01T00:00+00:00 http://www.pledgebank.com/LondonInventors#comment_6330 I see you already have a couple of signatories on your linked website. My worry about coming up to London to attend your event is whether it will actually help, and in some way cater for the need which we have all indicated. Why don't you join my Yahoo! group 'innov' (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/innov/) so we can discuss things by email (first)? http://www.pledgebank.com/LondonInventors#comment_6325 Hi, It`s great to see people responding to the idea of an inventors meetup, we`ve done the event in the past but to make it truely worthwhile we need a reasonable number of people to turn up each time. The date we`ve picked is the same day as the British Library`s Free patent search clinic - so people attending that are able to move across and join us after their course finishes. This is also the first date after the British Inventors Show - so hopefully we can get people to come from the show as well. http://www.pledgebank.com/LondonInventors#comment_6324 I've been aware of a 'gap in the market' for something like this for many years, now. The Net now makes progress in this area more possible, but we must still watch out for the danger of excluding the poor innovator on the grounds of money, especially that needed to get going. => Perhaps some sort of inventors' co-op is ultimately in order?
