- What is our purpose? Raison d’etre?We believe that people in a community are responsible for shaping that community’s future.

- Our Focus is going to be on Startups in London.Our Impact is going to be entrepreneurship in London.
- This may sound really stupid but our focus is in on Startups!Some people don’t know what the definition of a Startup is and assume that it is new business. There is a big difference between entrepreneurship in a traditional business starting up and entrepreneurship in a startup business.We have the good fortune to be able to explain the difference here. Experimenting with their business modelStartups – an organization searching for a business model….Usually a new business because of the stage they are in – they are looking for the secret sauce that will allow them to scale… In general they have a new idea and have yet to prove success in a way - They might not know what their key features for their idea and may not be bringing in revenue yet either… As a result of their unique challenges they require unique support quite often in the form of a informal and social safety net..This differs from a startup business because startup businesses have a clear understanding of where their costs, their revenue, their market, their supports are. You can get a business
- This may sound really stupid but our focus is in on Startups!Some people don’t know what the definition of a Startup is and assume that it is new business. There is a big difference between entrepreneurship in a traditional business starting up and entrepreneurship in a startup business.We have the good fortune to be able to explain the difference here. It’s not about showing special status, its about helping people with special challengesWhat is the difference? I will tell you and we will all be experts at the end of this class There is no clear definition butThe eagle being the thermostat of the environment analogy - Startups create the most dynamiceconomic growth but are the hardest to get going bc of the supports that they need to build them. If startups are thriving in a community then it is pretty much guaranteed that other entrepreneurs and service providers are thriving. A lot of grey areas here but this is the mandate - + Gain to the community – it is not tied to geographyEveryone is welcome but this is our focus – everyone will benefit if there are more startup companies in the city.Kinda a startup – Scalable - If the people building the company are trying to make something they can ‘wind up’ and let looseAn organic food service is not a startup – a organic food locator app on facebook definitely is a startup though.Organizing a foot race is not a startup but creating a race management system is a startup.If there is a business plan, then it’s probably not a startup. There are outward facing companies that are traditional too but they usually know all of the variables too and they grow much slower than other companies.
- ComparisonsSnap chat – 300 million msgs sent This is super challenging and our working definition is: – it’s an organization that is experimenting with how it plans on operating its business and it hasn’t quite discovered a sustainable way of operating – scalable…HANDOUT: NAME SOME STARTUPS AND BUSINESSES THAT EXIST IN THE CITY WHO SUPLDN SHOULD spread the word about! Possible discussion

- What can you do?We’ve discussed Startup Canada and Startup London. We are all versed in what a defiinition of a Startup is. If you are here, I’m going to say that you are motivated to see this organization contribute to the conversation. The question now is what’s next? What are we going to do going forward? What can you do?

- The smallest pack you can carry is contributing to the conversation right now. We’re going to do some short breakout sessions and crowdsource some ideas based around these three pillars that will eventually grow our startup community.I’m being extremely vague about these 3 concepts because I want to know why these are important to you. HANDOUT: WHAT ARE SOME ACTIONS THAT WORK TOWARDS OUR GOALSBreak out into 3-5 person groups. And write down everything.

- Don’t forget next slideCan you talk about your own experience in working in or seeing companies grow?What is your perception about the way in which people experience the growing of a company here?How do we reach these people?
- If we can create an accurate and complete picture of what London looks like and offers we will have already created a massive resource for anyone who comes ahead of us. It will set in motion a whole array of relationships, greater understanding, and a culture shift that will allow us to make things better going ahead.We need to create an unbelievably amazing list of supporting organizations, government groups, events, conferences, businesses, success stories, based off community outreach and research.

- Brad Feld said that you only a need a group of less than 10 people to start doing stuff for you to be able to thrive and build a startup community.. He also said that he’d much rather have a startup community than a boeing or a General Motors move in to town bc……. Do you think that people who run this city believe that too?
