Question: How to find friends with the same interest which is doing business(entrepreneurs)?

(Posted by: Dmitry S on 2011-12-19 21:08:31)

Hi. I live in Birmingham UK and have many friends with different common interests like travel, going out, other leisure activities. But I have a little problem. I don't have friends with the same one of my interests. This interest is doing business, for example, import cloths from China or a local one like accounting. I have no one to share my ideas about this topic with and as a result I have no opportunity to do brainstorm with my friends. I am sure there are many guys like me in big city Birmingham but how to find them and make friendship? I am very confused and feel a bit lonely. Any suggestions? Thank you. :)

This is where the social network LinkedIn is useful, you can search for people near you who share your business interests and there are likely to be some social groups in a big town like Brum. Make virtual friends initially and, when you get confident, go along to a social event. Also your local council office or chamber of commerce may well have details of local entrepreneur clubs you can try.
