Business building action from Terry Brock
Recently I had an opportunity that was incredible and I want to tell you about it. While visiting London my friend, Fergus McClelland, worked out arrangements so that I could meet some people that he knew and visit the Google Campus in London.
This is a place that is used for incubation and for fostering start ups and those who have great entrepreneurial ideas. I was blown away when I saw it! Google has created an environment where people can nurture their entrepreneurial ideas and get specific help to grow a business.
You can get a lot of assistance and aid for your start up ideas through this wonderful network. They really are building a community. They’re building a community of entrepreneurs who are very smart, help each other, and are serious about creating and building a magnificent business venture.
Go provide the infrastructure including conference rooms, a wonderful café (with very tasty sandwiches!), and wicked-fast Internet access at speed of 100 Megabits per second (100 Mbps). Hey, after all, you’re dealing with Google here! 🙂 Google has two facilities like this in the world. One is in London and the other is in Tel Aviv Israel. They just announced a third Campus to be built in Warsaw, Poland. As I was there I thought how this type of environment is so critical for building that entrepreneurial mindset to create success.
Most of us are not able to access this Campus because we either don’t live in London or don’t have that type of configuration. However, we can take the basics of it and find a way to build that around us. Find ways that you can create an environment where you create a community of entrepreneurially-minded people. Find ways you can grow your business by being around the tools and infrastructure you need––– particularly very high speed access to the Net! Build a community of supporters with ideas to make your dreams reality.
I want to share with you some of the pictures I got of the Campus in London. If you get a chance when you’re over in East London, be sure and swing by to visit. And don’t forget to try some of those tasty sandwiches! All the best,
Terry
