We are launching in SFBA, and over 180 alumni have signed up for our first event in the Bay area as per here https://lnkd.in/dKvUnUTy. There are still a few tickets left. Oxford Entrepreneurs Network has been active for years on the West Coast. Our events are open to them. Richard Lucas Founder Peter Cowley (he/him) https://lnkd.in/dSD3jcK8 You are welcome to apply join our Linkedin and Mighty Networks groups where you might find clients, co founders, investors or team members. https://lnkd.in/dqaqnt2w https://lnkd.in/dtgP75Gz https://lnkd.in/d37wRdkv https://lnkd.in/dbjM44R8 https://lnkd.in/dmKRqXN5 https://lnkd.in/diSrUihA

At CAMentrepreneurs we like being useful and sharing success stories. At our invite only joint event with The London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) James Kellett told me he got one commitment to invest in Spot Ship at the event. The event was such a success, with such positive feedback from those presenting that for sure we will do more. Apologies to those who didn't get in. We were heavily oversubscribed. Below you can see me with CAMentrepreneurs co-founder Peter Cowley (he/him) wearing one of Richard Pearey's shirts - Richard runs the Cambridge Society of London and founded "From Michael" equipped me, my son Daniel Lucas and brother Edward Lucas with fine shirts. It's fair to say that without CAMentrepreneurs I wouldn't be doing business with Richard or being perceived as having an fine satorial tastes.
