OpenCoffee Club Coming To Boulder – Soon
Saul Klein of Index Ventures turned me on a few weeks to OpenCoffee Club – a new program he started in London that is quickly making its way across the world (including Palo Alto, Paris and Amsterdam. Sacramento, Dublin, Brighton and Zagreb.)
Saul’s got a great overview of the first and second events on his blog. According to Saul, “the key is a regular place and a regular time – it’s not important who comes along, some days it might be no one – just that people know if they want to meet, this is the time and this is the place.”
Jason has committed to trying this in Boulder – look for more in the next month or so.
Thanks for the link to SacStarts.
In Sacramento, we’re using OpenCoffee not for investor meetings, but as sort of a co-working time for local entrepreneurs. Get out of your cave and come have a little interaction with other human beings.
Of course, if an investor stops by (with or without a checkbook) we won’t send them home.
Great idea brad.
Nabeel and I are going to start this next week in Boston. Location specifics here.
It’s an interesting concept. I’ll look more into it and maybe we’ll have an OpenCoffee Club in Romania too.
THX for the insight!
