Who this is for
If you like content by the likes of Tim Ferriss, My First Million, Codie Sanchez, and sites such as ideabrowser.com, needstoexist.com, explodingtopics.com, solarimpulse.com/solutions-explorer, and r/SomebodyMakeThis, I think you'll enjoy this!

Every few weeks, half a dozen of us get together at a pub to discuss business ideas - ones we've come up with from our own experiences, ones we've discovered that piqued our interested, ones we've seen elsewhere working and are interested in bringing here. We share knowledge and insight, challenge assumptions behind if an idea will idea succeed or fail, connect our relevant networks, and support others on their entrepreneurial journeys.

Enterprise here is used in the general sense: "an organisation, especially a business, or a difficult and important plan, especially one that will earn money". It doesn't mean a large corporation; it can be anything from a startup to conglomerate, non-profit to lifestyle business. Think the verb "enterprising".

Who this is not for...
If you're only into AI and Blockchain, this probably isn't for you. They're incredible technologies, and of course we'll discuss them, but there are already dozens groups in London obsessed with building ChatGPT wrappers to solve a problem no-one has. This is a problem-first approach.
