The London Solopreneur Circle: First Gathering

The London Solopreneur Circle: First Gathering

Thu, Jul 16, 6:00 PM
From The London Solopreneur Circle

**This is the first meetup of The London Solopreneur Circle, a small peer group for people actively building independent businesses outside the traditional corporate path.** The aim is to create a thoughtful peer space for people building independent businesses to share what they are working on, what feels hard, what is moving forward, and how we can support each other. The goal is simple: Honest conversation, accountability, useful ideas, partnerships, friendship and momentum. This is a no-pitch environment. If your main goal is to sell to the room, this is not the right group. Each session will usually follow a simple format: 1\. What are you building right now? 2\. What moved forward since last time? 3\. What feels hard\, confusing or stuck? 4\. Useful opportunities\, intros\, tools or resources 5\. One concrete action each person commits to before next time Nothing formal is needed. Just bring: * a short intro to what you are building * one current challenge or question * a willingness to contribute honestly * useful ideas, contacts or resources where relevant * We meet in Central London, usually in a relaxed, informal venue where proper conversation is possible. Exact venue details will be shared before the event.

Business Owners Walk & Coffee @ Battersea Park Saturday 10 am

Business Owners Walk & Coffee @ Battersea Park Saturday 10 am

Sat, Jul 4, 9:00 AM
From Own Account London Circle

Own Account London Circle A peer circle for independent business owners who don’t fit traditional networking, business memberships or socialising. Building a business in London is lonely. Not in a way you’d admit out loud - but in a way you feel on a Saturday afternoon when there’s no one to call, or when you have a small win and nobody around you really gets it. I wanted to start something I couldn’t find. I’m looking for a small group of confident, independent business owners in London to occasionally meet for a walk, a coffee/tea, no forced agenda, no speaker, no pitch. Just honest conversations about business, life, growth and wellbeing with people who understand the life you’ve chosen and face the same challenges. Real accountability doesn’t come from a paid programme or assigned accountability partner. It comes from people you genuinely know, care about and want to impress. You’ll fit if you are: \- Approx 35–55\, based in London \- Running a business\, agency or independent practice \- Not a startup\, not eligible for £3m\+ founder clubs \- Socially selective \- looking for peers\, not contacts \- Want connection\, not exposure This is not: \- A networking or pitching opportunity \- A startup mastermind or business course \- A front for an organisation\, membership or upsell \- A support group or therapy session \- A dating event or after\-work drinks \- An online community You might relate to some of these: \- The people around you \(friends\, family\, partner\) don’t really get it\. \- You work alone most of the time\, or your relationships are purely professional\. \- You moved to London and don't know many people\. \- You don't want to be pressured to share \- but if you do\, you’ll be heard and supported\. \- You want a small\, easy circle where conversation actually goes somewhere\. \- Who you’re becoming is as important as what you’re building\. \- You’d like a few hours outdoors\, clear your head and enjoy like\-minded company\. First meet: \- Battersea Park \- Saturday morning \- Walk and a coffee/tea \- Simple introduction \- Max 6 people If you read this and thought “finally” - let’s meet :)
